A5 and GTD
Sunday, August 29, 2004
After some thought, A5 has won out as my main GTD app. I will continue to use Note Studio as it works nicely for charting my work flow and status. I also plan to use Volker's reference book as a place to stash reference material. For those who haven't seen it, it is basically set up like an A-Z file holder. I have one book for the current catalog I'm working on and my reference stuff. I am considering a page where I track which items are on which page of each catalog. Could make finding them easier in the next catalog.
I went back to A5, so that I had a strong calendar based view of my week. I've learned I need to work from a weekly view. Part of me thinks it's wasteful not to use the built in applications (although that doesn't seem to apply to the built in memo app.) I like the simplicity of A5. So I've reinstalled it and started working in it again. The goal, after all, is the WORKING part. I've gotten a feel now for how much structure I need at this job, so I am more comfortable that it can provide enough for me.
