I like that it allows me the freedom to choose the tools that work best for me. A few tools I've been using: <a href="http://saw.themurdaughs.com/gtd-with-gmail-whitepaper/" title="a whitepaper on GTD with gmail" rel="nofollow">gmail</a>, <a href="http://www.rousette.org.uk/projects/" rel="nofollow">Tracks</a>, <a href="http://newton.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">Newton</a>, and online bookmarks (local install of scuttle). Good luck! I’ve been GTDing for a couple of months. I like that it allows me the freedom to choose the tools that work best for me.

It has made an unbelieable difference in how I approach all of the "stuff". GTD did for my thinking what finally switching back to OS X did. It's that kind of "powerfull". :O) I'll also chime in for the Hipster PDA. I've been through Newtons, Palms, Day Runners, multiple iPaqs, Tablet PC's, etc. The Hipster is the first strategy that I've consistantly held onto for longer than 4 months. It's highly compatible with the GTD system. Get through the book and find yourself a groove with GTD. Revsist the text a few weeks out for a refresher. I also highly suggest http://www.43folders.com. Good luck. Let us know how it works. I’m about 1 year into GTD. It has made an unbelieable difference in how I approach all of the “stuff”.

It's working pretty well for me. I had several false starts in coming up with a way to handle my various "to do" lists, but eventually found TaskToy which I have set as my browser home page. That's a big help for me. Every time I go on the web, I have to confront a reminder of what I ought to be doing. I also use a paper calendar and keep a handful of 3x5 cards handy at all times. I love the new mindset I have in taking care of the small tasks immediately. Overall, I'm happy with the system. I’ve been using GTD for several months now. It’s working pretty well for me.
