If you search around, there's a lot of good takes/varieties on GTD... I standardized on Evernote as my inbox/management system and try to never process physical paper if I can help it (get faxes in pdf form, scan and discard quickly most documents, scan and file the important ones). It's pretty easy to do these days, then it's up to you for your ideal workflow. I like Evernote because the mix of notebooks, tags, and the ability to make really short or really in-depth notes is good, and you can forward emails there that aren't time sensitive but should get done whenever.

Yes.. likely impossible for both watches to tell the same time, thus he doesn't quite know what time it really is..

I didn't get this quote.

Shouldn't it be impossible?

Could you talk more how do you use Evernote?

I mean, one notebook to work, other to errands, other to insights?

I start using it but I'm still looking for the best way to organize things.

I've gotten through about half of Getting Things Done, and it seems like the book has two interwoven pieces -- the GTD principles, and the specific technologies that allow you to enact them (file folders, physical bins, etc.). The principles are great, but think the technologies stuff is roughly useless now (because we can do so much better).

Where would you go for a modern take on how to live by GTD? Technology changes so fast that a follow-up book wouldn't be a great way to handle that (which is why he didn't do that, probably). Maybe various blogs (including yours)?
