Gmail for GTD Implementation
Merlin Mann | Sep 13 2004
Your “INBOX” holds your unprocessed mail, while your processed messages are manually shuttled into the appropriate buckets. All that processed mail lives in the same archive, but you use your custom Gmail labels as GTD “facets” to quickly pull up just the messages you need for your current context. Plus, of course, you can “Google” your own mail archive with the program’s excellent, advanced searching options. Believe me, this will soon have you wishing every mail program’s searching was this robust (I’m looking at you, Mail.app). Anyone out there tried a Gmail implementation of GTD yet? 23 Comments

I actually have started this, before even reading GTD, truthfully. Now that I have read it, I see what a powerful tool it is. I've archived every article (not just links), every email, and it's instantly accessible via the search. That takes care of the file system. Items that need action are labled as such. Gmail and GTD seem to go hand in hand. Now if they just had an integrated calendar, I'd be set. » POSTED IN:
