'Super Book'?
alxwz | Mar 17 2007
Hi all, I'm new to this forum and here's my first question: Some time and self management books or seminars here in Germany promote the use of a (hard-bound) book into which everything should go, in chronological order. First, could some native English speaker give me the correct English term for such a book, please? That would make googling so much easier. Secondly, any idea how the use of such a book could possibly map to GTD? Other than a hard-bound inbox, I can't see this fit into the GTD system, although I can see it as potentially useful (no more loose notes, everything in one place, etc.). Thanks in advance, 19 Comments

Hi all, The Lemony Snicket books refer to it as a "commonplace book" (three different characters keep one). I just found its Latin name, while finding a silly, Latin verse for my work Jabber to mean "I'm here at work, but in the middle of editing the wiki": A vade-mecum or vademecum is an item one carries around, especially a handbook. The term literally translates to "go with me". (That means that my current Available-But-Working message (my version of Twitter, I guess) is "in media res vademecum". I am suck a geek. :D) » POSTED IN:
