Review: Midnight Inbox 1.1.5

Review: Midnight Inbox 1.1.5: "Beautifully designed and built on sound organizational principals, Midnight Inbox 1.1.5 shows a great deal of promise and is an excellent tool for those who want to bring GTD to their Mac desktop. For the rest of us, the program needs more documentation and fewer assumptions."

I WANT this software!


And it would be completely useless to me, as all to-do lists are.


The principles behind GTD can be simplified into five specific actions: Collect, Process, Organize, Review, and Do.
First you Collect everything that comes across your desk.
Then you Process and Organize that information by deciding whether an item should be tossed in the trash, dealt with in a matter of minutes, or handled as its own larger project or to-do.
Then, at regular intervals throughout the day, week, month, and year, you Review what you’ve accomplished, checking completed items off your project list, and then set out to Do those things you haven’t yet finished.
Midnight Inbox helps automate these processes by regularly scanning your hard drive for new information and collecting it in an inbox, from which you then Process, Organize, Review, and Do.
