a view from afar

Vitalist. This is my folksr.de vote for the poll What electronic system do you use to Get Things Done? I just created.

I've actually tried a few GTD systems to one extent or another, and all of them have advantages and disadvantages. Vitalist doesn't work perfectly for me, but it does have some really useful features.

I will probably review the system I use every year or so - I was astonished how many new online systems there are around that I'd never heard about. You might want to check out the poll and see if it throws up some new ones you haven't seen (I didn't label which ones are web and which are desktop, though).

Well, kinda.

I've been following the Getting Things Done process for a month or so now, and it has pretty much transformed the way I work. I've bought pretty much every intray Tesco has had in stock - twice - and stacked up with foolscap files and white labels. I can say I am never wanting of anything from Staples, because I bought half the shop last time I was in there.

But the relatively small cash investment has already paid itself back in time at least five times over.
