The OutLinker script for processing your Microsoft Outlook inbox into GTD next actions and MindManager links now has the default option of using a form instead of an input box as a user interface: The installation program for the software is on the wiki. This means you can now: Interact with messages directly while program […]
The first draft of a MindReader user manualhas been compiled by one of the program’s power users. The downloadable pdf file currently consists of a compilation of MindReader pages from the wiki.

The idea was to assess the Freshness, Focus, Feasibility, Foresight, and Finishing (5F’s) of your current next actions and combine these into an overall score. The Next Action Analysis macro calculates and sorts these metrics for ResultsManager users […]
