Kinkless GTD 2 Go on your iPod (or other device)

I already posted about this in the blog, but this is probably a better place.

I just made available a script I wrote: KGTD2Go

This script will automagically transfer your KGTD action lists to your iPod without fuss, hassle, or the need to add another button to your OOP toolbar! (It also works great for exporting your next actions to any device that can read plain text files.)

Get it here, you know you want it!

“But wait,” you might say, “iCal already handles that!” Well, yeah, it does, provided that you don’t mind ALL your next actions getting lumped together without context or order along with your (filthy) pending actions which aren’t even NEXT but keep trying to bump up in the line!

Specifically, KGTD2Go has a few significant advantages over the iCal sync:

1- It maintains context. The KGTD2Go folder has a folder for each context, containing text files for each task. The text file contains notes, project information, and context so that you always know what you’re looking at!

2- It marks next actions with an asterisk and sorts them at the top of the actions list for each context

3- It has a separate “Next Actions” list, right along with the contexts.

It’s simple to use and install (unlike the first version). Just download it, double click it, and it’ll walk you through the setup. Next time you plug in your iPod, your KGTD file will be synced nearly instantly to your iPod! (Or your keychain drive, or your Palm’s SD card, or… well, you get the idea!)

Or, if you prefer, you can be a control freak and run it as an applet whenever you want. Or both! We’re all about CHOICE here!

Now that we’re up to version 2, it’s been pretty thoroughly tested, and it has yet to destroy a bunch of information on anyone’s HD, iPod or KGTD file! ;)
