Sounds about right. For example, I have a "Noise" perspective that collects in Context view the "@Errands" and "➤ ..." (personnel effective) actions. That shows me the background stuff that hovers around me daily. Be careful to realize ... Perspectives only translate to the iX platforms when they are CONTEXT driven, not PROJECT driven. So, my Noise perspective translates to my iPod, but my "Visions" perspective does not (because it is Project-centric).

Again, I use contexts for this kind of thing.

BINGO! This is EXACTLY what I mean too. I really want to be able to use tags (via OpenMeta!) to consolidate information about projects as part of summary reports.
