  • 7.19.07 It’s my party… posted in General

    Well, it was my Birthday today. I got a lot of good wishes, in person and via the internet, which kept me going through an otherwise perfectly awful day. But all that aside, Bartek got me an advance copy of the next iGTD and the new notification system rocks. You can add tasks and archive items through any interface that can send cocoa notifications, including rubycocoa, so porting the current version of Jott2iGTD was simple. I should be ready to release the next version about the same time he’s ready to release the new iGTD. Improved guessing algorithms, way better parsing system, date handling, all that jazz. Coming soon…

  • 7.1.07 Holy Cow! Jott2iGTD 1.1 posted in Geekery

    I had a bit of a brainstorm. We can run the sqlite3 command line utility as a shell command and get the output as an array. No extra libraries needed. Sorry to anyone who’s already installed sqlite3-ruby, but it won’t hurt anything ;). The download page has been updated with version 1.1, which is back to just the applescript and ruby script with no external libraries required.

  • 7.1.07 Jott2iGTD 1.0 posted in Geekery

    This is a major upgrade to Jott2iGTD, which allows you to add tasks to iGTD with your cell phone (via Jott.com). It improves on the ability to handle a slew of Jotts at once, and adds contexts and projects with Levenshtein guessing (because Jott naturally has trouble interpreting the proper nouns we often use for our project titles), as well as tags, better note support and priority levels…

  • 6.27.07 iGTD and Mail.app posted in Geekery

    In order to make the most out of my iGTD system, I’ve been learning to use its email integration features as my only organization system for emails/todos. I was previously using a combination of Mailtags and smart folders to create an email sorting system based on a GTD workflow. Now I use iGTD to categorize and tag all of my emails and more effectively integrate them into my action list…

  • 6.21.07 My Personal iGTD posted in Geekery

    I get a lot of searches coming in related to iGTD. So, inspired by a recent article on 43 Folders, I decided to offer a few of my own tricks for working with what I consider to be one of the best GTD apps for the mac.

  • 5.14.07 iGTD Review: 1.4 posted in Geekery

    Here’s the greatest thing about the new release of iGTD: Way fewer “hacks” are necessary to make it conform to a more GTD-like workflow. It’s got a revamped interface with much more fluid ways of handling things like “maybe” tasks and “wait for” tasks, plus it adds handling for next actions and start dates. And you thought it was great to start with! Check out the list of new features and go ahead and download it to try out. It’s still donationware, and according to the author, always will be. I went ahead and made a second donation on account of this being such an extensive upgrade that if it were a commercial application, I would have charged my users for it ;).
