Chatting about GTD

16 04 06 - 00:56 - Bookmark this post

I got a comment from John Ratcliffe-Lee on my article on GTD and Backpack. He wrote an excellent follow-up where he describes how he uses the new 37Signal product Campfire to complement his GTD-ness in Backpack/Basecamp. I don’t quite understand yet what the advantage is, but perhaps that will come in the following days.
What I have done is using Campfire to set up some chatrooms for you all to use. You can chat about GTD or well, whatever you like. Just keep it nice and clean!
I have made two chatrooms called Basic Talk and GTD Tips. Feel free to try out Campfire with these chatrooms and let me know what you think. Maybe I will be around every now and again but I can’t promise it…
Since I am on the free version of Campfire, only 4 simultaneous chatters are allowed. Which pretty much sucks ‘cause that is not enough for some real conversation. So if any of the 37Signals peeps are reading along with us, hook me up with a better plan so I can promote it better ;-)

The main advantage I see in Campfire (over Backpack) is the transcript feature. When dealing with large amounts of information (notes from classes, meetings, etc), being able to designate each chat room as a “page” and being able to search through everything for exactly what you’re looking for seems a lot more efficent to me than Backpack.
