Minimalistic GTD workflow: Getting Things Done with Do It!

Although a little too simple for my taste, Do It (formerly known as “To Do”) is one of the “oldies but goldies” around the Mac software community. Yes, I know, I am being mean, after all, “Do It” is only one or two years old – the author blog haven’t been updated since last year, [...]

Blogging with an iPhone…

…Is not at all a very difficult task. To be honest, it’s quite enjoyable, as long as you’re not on EDGE. From my experience, is very important to have a very good internet connection, otherwise the touchscreen keyboard will give you some very strange delays. But that keyboard also is the main reason for blogging [...]

My 7 essential wordpress plugins

Later update: One of the plugins I use a lot during the last few months is Blog Audit, which I wrote myself. Find out more about Blog Audit, download it, give it a try and don’t forget to send your feedback in the comments. It’s the only way I can make this plugin better. Thank [...]

GTD: identifying your contexts

One of the key factors for a good GTD implementation is the context management. There are many key factors, I agree, but context management is one of them. As you may already know, one of the basic concepts of GTD is to spread your actions over all the contexts you are acting in. You are [...]

Keep your soul in good shape: managing your psychological calories

You know the story of the 3 mice groups? I guess not. It’s a very interesting one and I thought it would be a very good start point for this post… So, without further ado: a group of researches in psychological behavior took 3 identical groups of mice, and put them in 3 separate cages, [...]

PocketTweets – an iPhone twitter client

Yesterday I was briefly describing two GTD-like applications, both based on Leopard’s new iCal engine, Anxiety and Today. While browsing on the Today’s authors website I also noticed that they launched an iPhone twitter client. I’m a twitter addict – although I’m not (yet) a twitter ranter, keeping my tweets at a normal pace – [...]

Today’s Anxiety: Mac OS X Leopard iCal new engine at work

The new Leopard’s iCal storage engine seemed to attract at least two GTD centric implementation in the last few weeks. The most notable are Today (by the same guys that wrote PocketTweets, the mobile Twitter client) and Anxiety (quite a strange name, I agree…) To be honest, both applications are pretty much the same thing [...]

TaskPaper – a lightweight task manager for Mac reviewed

When it comes to lightweight task managers, on Mac, especially, you think immediately at TaskPaper, an application provided by Hogbaysoftware. TaskPaper has a long history of reviews and good reactions. I discovered the application several months ago, when it was included in a bundle at MacHeist , and that should point from the beginning that TaskPaper [...]

Money and you

Money is one of the most common topics in western culture. Almost any newspaper, book, movie or other form of collective information media is talking about it, in one form or another. Without any doubt, money has become an obsession of the western culture, one of the most materialistic culture in whole history. Money seems [...]

Training yourself for happiness

For me, happiness is one of the most mysterious yet over-hyped word in this universe. Everybody talks about happiness. It’s everywhere: in music, in movies, in art or in spiritual techniques. Some of us are taking it for granted, some of us are making a job from talking about it, and some of us are [...]

Gtdagenda.com – an online GTD application reviewed

The proliferation of web-based productivity applications – with a GTD twist, of course – seems to be the buzzword for these days. It’s less than one month since I wrote a review about 43actions.com, and today I will do the same for another application, called Gtdagenda. You can find it at gtdagenda.com, and if you [...]
