Whitepaper: GTD LoFi/HiFi by Emory

Enough people have been picking my brain lately about my workflow that I decided to document it. Heavily.

Published versions of this draft as I'm writing it will be available online and I will be commiting changes as I work on it.

I'll probably also post something on my weblog or in this thread when revisions are made.

Since email has been a hot topic lately, I started with that section, and I'll be documenting various other topics as I go.

Permalink for this doc will be: http://kvet.ch/pages/gtd-whitepaper-emory

duplex 3x5 printing

Stew, I am printing mine on an HP printer at work (OfficeJet 4100 AIO), and the only problem I have run into is the bottom margin. I use the sliding paper width guide thing (that's the technical name for it, i'm sure) to push up against the card stack and push them in until they meet a little resistance. After that, the printer feeds them in and prints wonderfully. The cards print straight, but the bottom margin is considerably larger than the .125 of the DIY planner. In Acrobat Reader's print setting though there was a setting to make the document conform to the printer's margins, and that fixed it for me. Good luck.

I can print on my HP 5500 all-in-one and a HP Color Laser 3500 at work fine after tweaking the settings, on one side. The problem I usually have is printing duplex on 3x5's. It seems that th first pass through the printer warps the card causing the 2nd pass to jam. I'm going to try going with card stock and cutting.

How much experience do people have duplex printing on 3x5's?

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
