Tonight is the kick-off for the GTD Summit here in San Francisco. If you haven’t noticed, David Allen and his GTD method of Getting Things Done have really taken off! David is a long time fan of mapping and has been using MindManager for years.
So, I’m going to attempt to do some live blogging and tweeting at the event. I’ll post Summit updates, quotes, reactions, photos and some maps. Ambitious? Maybe. Hopefully all the technology will cooperate!
Tonight’s Activities: Register and then schmooze at the welcome reception. When no one’s looking, I’ll sneak out and head to another event. Shhh, don’t tell anyone. I’ll also be minimizing my emails for the next few days — so if you’d like to contact me, use Twitter or the Mindjet blog comments!
