Overview

 

What's Vanilla Palm? That's a GTD implementation that relies on the native, or "plain vanilla" Palm device applications: Calendar, Contacts, To Do list, and Memo pad. It may rely entirely on a handheld device, but more likely links to something on a larger machine, such as the Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook.

 

There's more than one way to do it, of course. Add your implementation below.

 

Implementation Format

 

• Introduction: tell us a little about yourself and how you use GTD.
• Collect: what do you use for collection? The Palm or something else?
• Process: what is the workflow you use to process your collected stuff? How do you turn thoughts into Projects and/or Next Actions?
• Organize: what have you got where on your Palm for GTD purposes? How do you use the Palm's categories? What reference material do you keep on the Palm?
• Review: do you do a daily review? Weekly? On the Palm, or using a desktop application that synchronizes with the Palm? What's your process?
• Do: what does your workflow look like when you're in the heat of actually doing things?
• Other: anything else to comment on about how you use your Palm's native applications to Get Things Done?
