What is GTD?
GTD - Getting Things Done - is a simple and effective productivity concept: designed so that even the laziest and most scattered of people can be organised and stress free.
It is a way to get things done with "less effort, more ease and elegance".
GTD focuses on Contexts and Next Actions. A Context is the best place to achieve something, and a Next Action is the thing you think is most important to do next.
Projects and complex priorities are strongly devalued as they are rarely the answer to organisational problems.
As a very simple example, a to do list might have the Context 'At Computer', with the Next Actions being 'Visit GtdGmail.com' and 'Download GtdGmail'. Thus, when you are next sat at the computer, you know exactly what is most effective to do next.
The emphasis is on the fastest, easiest way to clear your task list.
A primary example being the 2 Minute Rule: any task that can be done in two minutes should be done straight away.
GTD is built on the notion that a person's mind is a very ineffectual place to store their todo list. It aims to move these lists somewhere else, freeing the brain to concentrate on the task at hand.
Enter Gmail...
Why Gmail?
- We love it!
GTDGmail was originally built as an internal tool to help organise Bumble Search.
We use GMail daily, and so it made sense use it as our base for all things GTD. - Gmail is an Excellent GTD Partner
Gmail has long been identified (see Bryan Murdaugh's Whitepaper) as a very good tool for GTD.
It has a simple interface, plentiful storage, effective label system a basic approach to storage (just Inbox and Archive).
The 'Conversation' concept is perfect for efficiently linking tasks and other data - again promoting simplicity and personal effectiveness.
Finally, email needs GTD as much as any other part of your life, so it makes sense to embed GTD into an email client.
Does Gmail Object?
Legally speaking, any page modifications are against their T&Cs. Therefore, as a disclaimer we have to state that you run GTDGmail at your own risk.
However, we believe we actually benefit Gmail.
- Improved Functionality = More Customer Retention
GTDGmail brings excellent functionality to those that appreciate GTD, thus encouraging more people to use (and keep using) Gmail.
This is done without alienating the users who do not want GTD features. - Professional Product = No Image Harm
GTDGmail is a professional product, that in no way brings Gmail into disrepute.- GTDGmail makes itself clearly known - it is not easily confused with standard Gmail.
- GTDGmail does absolutely nothing to harm Gmail's business model.
Infact, if anything we boost revenue, as we carry Google AdSense advertising on this website.
