Similar to you, I used to use a solution that relied on Perspectives.

In my case, I have a work Context called "Work" (very imaginative naming, right?) & "Home" for home. Nested underneath each of those contexts, I used to have an "Online" context ("Work > Online" and "Home > Online").

Some tasks, like personal blogging, were only meant to do at home, and others like "weekly time entry" were aimed at doing while in the office. I created a Perspective called "Online" that included both my work and home "Online" Contexts so that I could see all of them if I needed.

In practice, however, I found myself seeing tasks that I was technically able to do, but distracting me from the context I was in. Seeing my blogging tasks while at work tempted me to write quick snippets when I should be focused on working, and seeing work tasks at home kept me dedicating more time to my job than I wanted.

I ultimately stopped using the "Online" Perspective because it was /decreasing/ my focus, which is counter to the overall goal of the app, and GTD.
