Getting Things Done Outlook Add-In Support

Fans of the Getting Things Done method of uhh…getting things done, will at least want to download and try the latest GTD plug in for Outlook. If you haven’t heard of it, it is a plug in that helps you keep your inbox clean as a whistle. You can snooze, delegate, make tasks and calendar entries right from the inbox interface and track them fairly easy as well. I say fairly easy, because I have it loaded and some of the views take some getting used to.

Have any Achieve-IT! visitors tried out this plugin? What do you think? Let’s collaborate!
