I am always looking for a better personal productivity methodology. From Day-Timers to The 7 habits of Highly Effective People to todo lists and PDA’s (still have my Apple Newton!), so it is no surprise that I am constantly on the lookout for new techniques.
Right now, I am looking at Getting Things Done by David Allen. It is an interesting system, in that he really doesn’t give you a system as much as a methodology. He expects you to develop a record-keeping system that works for you. I’m using an online planner system to do this called “Remember the Milk.” I’m very impressed with it so far. RTM is extremely flexible – almost too flexible. I’ve reconfigured it about 4 times to get it to work how I want it to work.
What I like most is the combination of tags and smart lists. Smart lists are basically stored searches, but the UI treats them just as if they were lists. So effectively, I can mix and match tags to create a very flexible system for organizing my work. I haven’t decided if it is too flexible, but I have already organized and diced my work into about 30 different piles. More on that when I get some time with it to see how it works.
