Elgan: 'Getting Things Done' to go

19.01.2009

1. Ability to capture hands-free. Sometimes you can't stop what you're doing and type on a smart phone, but you need to capture an idea or send yourself a reminder.

2. Graceful handling of recurring tasks. Many of our tasks are recurring actions -- daily, weekly, monthly or even annually. And it's great to be able to quickly switch frequencies (from, say, daily reminders to weekly).

3. Access from any PC. We digital nomads never know where we'll be or what kind of access we'll have. Sometimes the only Internet access is somebody else's PC -- say, in a cybercafe or hotel business center. It's important to be able to access 100% of our GTD system from any computer.

I've looked far and wide, tried dozens or hundreds of potential solutions over the years and have finally found what I believe is the ultimate combination of software and services for digital nomads who want to "get things done." They give you all the benefits of GTD, fill in the "missing three" gaps mentioned above and, best of all, are completely free. Here they are.
