Next Action. A nifty Getting Things Done tool (done in Javascript but for local use).

Nice. Maybe I'll get around to it later.

I prefer the insanely simple Tadalists. Of course, what do I know about productivity...I spend an absurd amount of my day reading Metafilter.

This "productivity" you speak of . . . does one need "self-discipline" to experience it?

Saw this on Lifehacker today. Waaaaaaaay cool in the same way that Tiddlywiki and GTDTiddlyWiki are (discussed earlier here): a single page application that includes a built-in development environment. So, you can customize and tailor Next Action to your exact needs, without needing any other software.

Tadalists requires an internet connection. You can carry this with you LOCALLY.

Don't miss the fact that this was created with TrimJunction, which appears to be (essentially) JavaScript on Rails. (See Ruby on Rails, if you don't get the reference).

It is also worth noting that this is a very young project (.09 beta) and currently works best with Firefox (but of course you all, being of higher than average intelligence are already using Firefox).

Hmm. Doesn't seem to work at all in IE.

So a digital dashboard is a combo of a day planner and post-it notes?

this looks like a checklist. except when you check something, it fades out into oblivion with the power of javascript.

thanks, but, I don't see the point.

Did you guys plan that or what?
