Scott:
As you may have seen in a later email message, I had discovered the
same site (great minds think alike....). I do use the Project Center
because I found it effective in keeping all of the elements
surrounding a project in one place (emails, attachments, files,
tasks, etc.) The scripts provided by Nik are great and I've grabbed
a couple others from other sites. For example, I have a script I
keep in the dock that lets me create a task at any time, regardless
of what application I'm using (i.e., I don't necessarily have to be
in Entourage at the time).

Nestor,
I've been both an Entourage and GTD user for years. It took me a
long time to get to the system I'm using now, and the final pieces
were put together by a really great series of articles over at this
site:
http://inik.net/node/86
It was written by someone who used another popular option, Kinkless
GTD. The fact that he dumped that for Entourage I think made his
Entourage/GTD system all the better. I really love it.
I was a beta reader/inputer for David Allen's white paper on using
Entourage with GTD. I was quite disappointed with the final
version. Unlike Jim, I didn't find it very useful. I felt it was
written by someone who didn't really know Entourage or take the
time to get their head around it.
One twist: I don't use the Project Center at all. Getting rid of
it, and just using Tasks and Tasks Custom Views was the final aha
in my own method.
Have fun,
Scott
