Hi, I've been using Thinking Rock for GTD for a while now and have just picked up (and transferred tasks into) mGSD, a few things either struck me as questions or issues other people may see.
1. The initial hurdle to using mGSD was the fact it wouldn't save changes on my PC at work (the IT dept have restricted internet explorer) but was fine at home (Firefox). This was irritating as d- cubed saved just fine and from what I could tell with a bit of research seemed to be doing the same thing on save. I discovered that if I did a "save as..." and specified a complete file (rather than the file/folder combo thing) then when I opened that newly saved file I could then use the "save changes" option. Very odd behaviour and I'd have given in if I weren't so stubborn. 2. I see lots of references to "journal" tiddlers, what's the idea with them? I like the idea of keeping journal entries in mGSD as it would keep my Work Log and Task List in the same place. But I couldn't see how you reviewed previous journal entries effectively. 3. Is there an option that will force actions to inherit the star if their projects have it? 4. I've just dumped my details into mGSD from Thinking Rock and noticed that IE slowed down a lot, is this a known issue? Running at home firefox hasn't had any problems with speed. 5. I'm used to Projects, Actions and Contexts but Realms and Areas are new to me. I get the impression Areas are like never ending Projects, thus Projects are really sub-projects of Areas. Is this how people use them? Realms are much more obvious as they provide a clear way to shift focus between managing work tasks/home tasks/whatever. I'm really impressed with the quality of the software, nicely done. Cheers, Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GTD TiddlyWiki" group.
