Hi,
I am new to OF and GTD. Since picking it up at MacWorld, OF has been an enormous help in organizing my days, which is really saying something, given how crazy it can get sometimes. As a result, I picked up a copy of GTD and am working my way through it.
There was one aspect of the GTD approach that I don't seem to see implemented in OF, and I am wondering how people are handling it. This concerns ideas that I want to keep around for reference, but that don't reflect actions. As a variation, some actions (email correspondence, for instance) result in information that I want to keep handy.
While this kind of information is a part of GTD, I don't see a way to handle it well from withing OF. One possibility that I am entertaining is to keep a separate set of linked files in Omni Outliner. These could be attached to a reminder to review and update from time to time.
How are other people handling this?
Thanks,
Dan
