Our Most Popular PostsClearContext 4 Review - New Dashboard feature good for GTDturtlewax | Nov 15 2007About a year ago I discovered ClearContext, a plugin for Microsoft Outlook that helps you manage your inbox. I tried it and wrote my comments here on this forum (http://www.43folders.com/forum/2006/10/20/gtd-and-clearcontext) I never was able to really get working on GTD, but not because of the software, mainly because of me. However, ClearContext and some of the GTD concepts have helped me in keeping my Inbox almost empty most of the time. I will not repeat myself, but the "Defer" and "Unsuscbribe" features that I described in the other post have been a great help read more »POSTED IN:
dropfiles vs folders / binders, orgnanizing referencesHelen | Oct 18 2007Does anybody use a condensed version of the tickler file?

An issue i've been havingJimi Heffernan | Oct 13 2007Heres my problem. Let's say i've made a list of things i need to talk to bob about. So i have a list of tasks in my @Bob context. I go to school, and, until recently, i wouldn't have even had that list when i bumped unexpectedly into him, but now i have decided to put those in my iPod Touch, which i always have, and is, unlike a notecard, reuseable. Now heres the issue. How do i rememember how to whip out the touch, flick over to @bob and go "I need to ask you about a horse." or whatever the task is? quite a conundrum for me. any ideas?

Del.icio.us Tag Management?Chage | Feb 20 2008Right now I have a heaps of tags in del.icio.us where this is only 1 item associated with the tag.

Scansnap alternatives???Manolito De los Reyes | Feb 20 2008I've heard a lot about the Fujitsu Scansnap and how people have been utilizing it in their paperless lives. I was wondering if anyone has a less expensive alternative to the Scansnap. Perhaps similar product on the cheap(er)? Or has someone found a nice All in One type printer that works for their paperless workflow? POSTED IN:
