Dealing with fuzzy repeating tasksFlooey McBob | May 24 2008Hey all, I’m relatively new to GTD, and I’ve run into a problem which my favorite search engine hasn’t resulted in any completely satisfying answers for. read more » POSTED IN:
Scansnap / Editable/searchable PDFsshowing on | May 21 2008Hello. Still trying to figure out how to use this site/where to post. I do love this site and wanted to say that you guys have certainly fed my lust for the ScanSnap with my fantasies of a paper-less office. read more » POSTED IN:
Add on domains in A2hosting, and DreamweaverBob M | May 15 2008I signed up for A2 hosting using the 43folders coupon (I hope someone was able to have lunch on the commission;), and am wanting to set up an add on domain. This is where my first domain is: /public_html/ = domain1.com and /public_html/domain2/ = domain2.com i.e., both in the same file structure, but they appear as two separate domains. I use Dreamweaver and already have domain1.com’s site root set to: /public_html/ where /public_html/index.htm read more » POSTED IN:
Mail.app smart mailboxesMartin Betts | May 14 2008After being turned on to Merlin’s Inbox Zero presentation I’ve been rethinking my email workflow.

How do you review multiple large documents quickly?Steve | Apr 29 2008Part of my job is to read/review/assimilate long articles, white papers, short manuals, et cetera. I have a GTD context for “Read/Review” and guess what? Things stay there like they’re in quicksand. I need a way to “grok” big documents. Anyone got any tips or links? Something step-by-step would be helpful. I’m not talking about simple speed-reading; I’m talking about reading and evaluating but not spending all day on a single tome. POSTED IN:
Synchronization between palm - outlook - google calendarTrevor McKee | Apr 17 2008So I’m trying to figure out a low-budget way of essentially getting my palm m130 to carry a calendar and my to do lists. I even have DataViz’s Beyond Contacts software. The problem is the BC software doesn’t want to talk to my Outlook on my work computer for some reason, and I am not really sure how to narrow down what’s going wrong. read more » POSTED IN:
Nice, simple 3 x 5 index card holderPeter | Apr 14 2008I keep my notes on 3 x 5 index cards, quasi-hipster-pda style, but basically just a lump of cards with a rubber band around them. The cards keep getting bent and messed up, so I’m looking for a simple, but good-looking, card holder. I’ve seen Levenger’s, but that’s too complicated. I don’t need pockets & pads. read more » POSTED IN:
Hipster PDA for salesJ.A. Prufrocks | Apr 6 2008I remember coming across a year or two ago some Hipster PDA templates specifically for sales people. One template categorized the types of contacts that you did that day with a point system that you could add up. The points/categories had a nice color coding scheme in squares containing the point value. Other than that, I don’t remember much about them other than their design was really nice and simple. I can’t seem to find the templates or bookmarks to them. Anyone know what I’m talking about? Know where I could find them? POSTED IN:
