lo-fi - keeping it tidy - thoughts ?
direwolf | Dec 13 2007
I'm implementing GTD using mainly lo-tech, ie, all my Next Actions, Projects etc are listed on 5x3 index cards (stapled together by category - ie, all NA@home cards together etc). I just cross out items when done but the cards tend to look a bit messy after a few weeks (my dodgy handwriting doesn't help !), to the point where it gets tricky to scan through them efficiently. I did think about transferring everything onto Remember The Milk then I could just print out legible lists every now & again (and keep it lo-tech by crossing out / writing on them) but I think they'd only print out on A4, I'd rather have them on A5 at the very most. Any thoughts re keeping things a bit more user friendly ? 4 Comments

I have also considered switching to lo-tech gtd. I currently use a ipaq hp2210 with Pocket informant as my primary gtd tool. Unfortunately it crashes half the time; I worry about losing backups-meltdown etc. I sometimes see some hipster pda's on web pages that are more hi-tech than my pda! Am I missing something here? I thought the hpda was a effective low -tech tool - who cares whether anyone else can read your writing or understands your sytem? If it works.......... » POSTED IN:
