I was surprised at the amount of response I got on another blog when I asked if anyone I knew was a fan or foe of Getting Things Done. There was much love for it, while the the most negative comments was "meh, it's not for me". So it definitely seems worth looking at.
Have bought Allen's book, and waded around in 43folders.com for a while, so I have a pretty good idea now how the system works now. Yes, the core idea is quite attractive. (Get everything-and-I-mean-everything out of your head, and into a trusted external system.)
I have downloaded OmniFocus, a just-released Mac application specifically designed around GTD, with a lot of input from the 43folders people. I have been a big fan of the Omni Group's stuff since I started with Mac OS X, and look forward to sinking into this.
