For fans of GTD, there's ClearContext

My life is more than full of things to do. And like most (all?) of you, I have trouble keeping track of the important things and ensuring that they are given the attention they deserve.

So I've been reading things on 43 Folders and trying to get into the whole GTD (Getting Things Done) mindset.

Recently I started using a great Outlook add-on called ClearContext. While it makes Outlook startup a little slower, it does a great job of helping me to categorize my e-mails and assignment them priorities. (If you know of the David Allen GTD Outlook Add-in, I've tried that. I couldn't get it working successfully with the Outlook setup at work.)

Bear in mind that it does take effort and time to get used to the ClearContext way. After a month of use I think that now I get about 40% of its capabilities, and that's giving me enough benefits that I'll be continuing to use it.

I purchased a full copy a few weeks back, and I just received an e-mail about passing the message about ClearContext on to friends and colleagues. You get a $15 discount on the purchase price, and I get a free upgrade to the latest version of ClearContext, which is due out shortly.

So if you download it, try it, and decide you can't live without it, use the following coupon code CC15-15874 and you should be all set.

Let me know what you think of it.
