This is an idea, check out this post at Getting Things Done Blog. Tag, you're it!

Other ideas include book reviews, blog reviews, and how you use the principles of GTD in everyday life.

I began blogging about GTD, and have expanded into Web 2.0, the future of work, new media, and escaping the cubicle (they are all inter-related). What else interests you? I would wager that there are plenty of folks out there that would like to read your opinions and learn from your expertise.

Thank you for your work with this blog.
I work with onenote and found your suggestion very useful.
In add to your "flags" conventions, I use to put a prefix that sorts the @Next by priority and by duration estimate, in order to best organize the work.
My convention is explained by this example:

@Next Action
***[1h] G.P., print and read on his proposal
*** call T.M. to schedule the meeting on prj 'X'
**[2h] Connectors, read the pdf and decide the model
*[1h] Prj 'A', review and send the BOM table
[1h] LCD, look at the specification to find if it matches
[2h] GPS antenna, read the catalog and select 2/3 products
[4h] GANTT Prj 'B', complete review

Good work and keep on posting about GTD (or FTF) and 1note ;)

I use Stephen Covey's First Things First with GTD.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Things_First

I only use the four-quadrant matrix from First Things First, as a filter for the GTD 'Is it actionable?' phase.

If it is actionable and 'Urgent and Not Important' or 'Not Urgent and Not Important', it goes into Trash, Someday/Maybe, or Reference (most usually Trash).

Hope it helps.
