“The key with any GTD setup is to make sure your tool fits your working style. So far, Highrise works for me…You add each project as a person. That’s it.

on 18 Feb 08Backboard is “Mac-like”? It sticks your Backpack content into a spreadsheet inside a preferences pane. I think the web-based Backpack is more Mac-like than this. Just making something in XCode doesn’t make it automatically Mac-like.
