Getting Things Done with Your Mac. By Giles Turnbull 03/08/2005 I'd like to tell you about my new PDA. I'm a journalist and a dad. I frequently need to make rapid notes and reminders of important tasks, dates, phone numbers, or URLs. I often get inspiration for new articles when I'm away from my computer, so I need to record those ideas, too. I need something very simple, with extremely long battery life, resistant to damage by excitable two-year-olds, and easy to synchronize with the rest of my workflow. I spent quite a while considering what hardware I could use to fulfill all these requirements. Here's my amazing new PDA: A design classic: the Hipster PDA It does everything I need.
This wasn't my idea. This article is for the people who haven't heard that hype yet. Getting Started There's Getting Things Done (with capital letters) and there's getting things done (without). If you haven't heard of Getting Things Done, or GTD, allow me to explain. Because once you've got the Getting Things Done bug, it's hard to shake off.

Home - Mac-Workflow. iGTD: Strong OS X app with powerful Quicksilver integration | 43. iGTD & Quicksilver As I mentioned on MacBreak Weekly the other day, I'm very impressed with what I've seen so far in iGTD, a new "Getting Things Done" application for OS X. It feels like a solid, powerful, and practical tool for managing action, and I'm pleased to say it's steered clear of a lot of the GTD-ish visual theatricality that, in my opinion, has made some of the apps out there more pretty and fun to use than they are useful in the context of a mature, streamlined system.
I mention iGTD here because, in playing with it yesterday, I turned up this excellent page about iGTD's Quicksilver integration. Pretty mind-blowing (albeit geeky) stuff, since the detailed syntax allows you to enter tasks via QS from anyplace, while still identifying project name, context, priority, date due -- and even allowing you to add a note. (BTW, that image will make more sense after you read the whole page) I encourage you to have a look at iGTD if you get a chance and take it for a spin. GTD drawings.
