GTD with Nozbe

Nozbe appears to be the latest web app in the Getting Things Done space. It is currently in beta, but they are taking signups so you can have a look and play around with it.

To that end, I played with it briefly this evening and found some great potential, but I’m not quite ready to switch away from Tracks just yet. It is a “young” app and there appears to be some interesting ideas for it so I plan to check back in the future and see how things are coming along.

From the site:

Nozbe is a web-based application that will help you get things done. It’s simple, easy and free. We have been inspired by many concepts presented by David Allen in his best-selling book:

“Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity”

Using your Nozbe Account you will be able to manage your projects, organize your tasks, add notes and set next actions – using a simple web-based interface. No downloads, no fuss, pure web 2.0 style.

Beefs:
Currently, contexts are defined for you and I don’t see a way to change that. They have a nice variety of ‘em (with nifty identifying icons) but I have a few “custom” contexts that I like to use. The 5 project max thing was a bit of a deal-breaker for me as well. And since I’m whining, I’d sure like to see a way to move a task from one project to another.

On the plus side, any GTD fan will intuitively feel at home with it. Very simple to use, very approachable and easy to understand.

I see some of my beefs have been raised in the forums with positive response so, like I said, I do look forward to having another look soon.
