I’m using linux (kubuntu hardy haron 8.04 ) since around a year now. Was looking for a GTD system taht really works & passes the following testts:
(1) Has to be easy to install config & use
(2) Need to be rock solid stable ( i don;t want a great app to throw me out of gear one day suddenly !)
(3) Has to be free as in beer & speech both
After all the googling & posts & testing etc.. found 3 systems that come closer to this criteria
NO.1 is EMACS ORG MODE !!!… I’m not good at emacs but this thing is rock solid…stable, easy, & really works……
NO.2. is gtd-free (Java based JAR). This is light, platform independent & intutive interface.
NO.3. is lazy worm’s workdesk which is a LAMP (Linux Apache Mysql PHP) app, but too heavy to use as GTD & not everybody is so clear about lamp installation & config.
VERDICT
I will suggest GTD free. You can use it on any platform with Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed
Installation Steps:
(1) Get Java JRE if you don;t have yet installed
(2) Download from http://gtd-free.sourceforge.net/
(3) You can have jar or exe file basing on your preference
(4) Run the jar file from the download directory…. you are up & running
Hope this helps
