Christopher you mention a program called Banzai (windows only)…do you have a link to that?

Furthermore I would like to add that I, too, have tried to categorize my next actions into a multitude of lists. The problem is that it just takes so much effort to keep maintaining a gazillion next action lists based on context (be it life area specific or location/mode specific) that I have now just decided to testdrive one next actions list with indented category headers.

so for example I would just have:

@CALLS

[OC_TAXES] -call Jan for advice on company tax forms

@COMPUTER

[SCHOOLY3Q3] -make survey layout in Quark Xpress [SCHOOLY3Q3] -deliver survey layout as PDF to project team

and more ofcourse, but all in one textfile. (I actually have started using EssentialPIM [1] since a few weeks which runs nicely from my usb memorystick that I carry around from the home office to school to friends to the studio etc and I will always have all the information with me.)

I don’t know yet how this will work out for me to be honest. Its a hard one but I have to decide between this approach all in one textfile with headers or getting the info from a multitude of textfiles sorted by context.
