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 just got Gmail this...Submitted by Jim (not verified) on September 13, 2004 - 7:56pm.
I just got Gmail this week so I'm just setting it up. I have redirected all the mail that I get from a mailing list and put it onto gmail and auto label it. This keeps it off my machine and 'out of my head'. Still getting used to the gmail thing and how to use it to it's full potential. BTW I'm also trying Notebook (http://circusponies.com/). So far I like it and it's helping to GTD. » POSTED IN:
