This gives you the same functionality as a lot of GTD software using features that are part of Leopard. If you check off a Task in iCal as "done" it will be checked off on the Note in Mail as well as the operating system keeps Tasks synchronized between iCal and Mail. In Mail Notes you can look at your Projects, and see any Tasks associated with them.įor your Weekly Review, simply scan down the Notes and insure that there is a least one active Task for every Project recorded in a Note. In iCal you can look at your Task Lists by Context by clicking on the dummy calendars for each Context. On each Note, enter any ToDos that you want to associate with that project and select the "calendar" that corresponds to the Context List in iCal that you want the Task to appear on. That way the dummy calendars work like Categories for the Task List in iCal. Don't use them to record appointments, just ToDo Tasks. Therefore:Ĭonfigure iCal with dummy calendars for each Context List. Any Task you create on a Note in Mail shows up in iCal too. Then, one day I realized that OX10 Leopard has a simple way of doing GTD. I've played with a lot of Mac applications for GTD too. I think they have priced it too high, but I got it for less due to buying early and being an owner of a OmniOutliner license. It has a native Mac interface, and if you like the way that they have implemented GTD concepts, it could be your best solution. Being the first of the (alpha/beta/v2 versions) frontrunners to make it out the door, it is stable and feature complete. Things is amazing stable for a alpha, has a "tags" take on contexts, and seems to be progressing nicely. IGTD2 looks very promising, but it is very much alpha at the moment.
Midnight Inbox looks to be resolving its few issues (speed, and minor Leopard compatibility issues) with version 2, due to start in beta in February.
In fact, from a pure GTD workflow perspective, it adheres better than any other program I have seen, including Thinking Rock (which is slow on my dual G5, and has what I would describe as an anti-Mac interface ~it is Java based).
