Tudumo

In contrast to Basecamp and Tracks, which are server based, Tudomo is an interesting desktop tool that helps with the GTD methodology. At first glance it’s a bit different than other GTD tools as it starts with a screen that leaves you wonder, “what am I supposed to do here?”

As you start to poke around, Tudomo’s simplicity becomes apparent. It really is a low clutter approach to organization as it is based on a single list of tasks that can be manipulated. There are no multi-project lists sprouting out multiple sets of trees in Tudomo. Rather, the task context is the critical component in Tudumo to getting things done.

Tudomo does not currently have online or multi-user capabilities. As such, Tudomo is likely suited only for a single user who doesn’t stray far from the local install.

While it might be too simple for some, Tudomo is worth considering if you merely seek an elegant way to handle a list of things to get done.

Just like Sean Kerner mentioned in his conclusion

Quote :Then again, getting things done isn’t about spending all your time trying to figure out how to get thing done. It’s about listing your tasks and taking action.
, I felt the need to strip a ToDo list from all it's (in my eyes) cluttering options and keep it all in 1 easy-on-the-eyes list.

With that in mind I created what can be tried out here:

It would be very much appreciated if people tried it out and let me know what they think.

(I know it needs a scrollbar option for when there are more items then fits the screen, don't worry, that is on my personal ToDo list :-))

Did this review really review anything at all? Reading this review just gets in the way of actually getting things done.

I implemented GTD with Backpack (by the same guys that do basecamp) and it works great from me.

Thinking Rock is a very authentic reproduction of GTD workflow in a dekstop app: http://www.thinkingrock.com.au/

The only knock I have against it is that it does not have server/syncing component for easily accessing your review.

Hi,

For implementing GTD you might try out this new web-based application:

http://www.gtdagenda.com

You can use it to manage your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use
checklists, schedules and a calendar.
A mobile version is available too.

As with the last update, now Gtdagenda has due date for tasks (you'll see in the calendar on the right if you have tasks due today), task notes, and Email & Print support.

Hope you like it.

I can't believe you have a GTD list without http://www.vitalist.com on it.
