If you have several tabs open, WFx allows you to jump to existing web pages that are open via the same shortcuts by a dynamic called FTOC (Find Tab or Create). WFx opens web pages with intuitive shortcuts… so you don’t need to keep certain frequently-visited sites open in any tab.Ģ. WFx eliminates the need to manage browser tabs at all. Tree Style Tab looks amazing… but with WFx, it amazingly becomes redundant. Just some food for thought, nothing more. I think a lot of both software and conceptual work still needs to be done by people infinitely smarter than myself to arrive at what David Allen envisioned, but with the growth and evolution of Workflowy and also Rawbytz’s work here, I wonder if all this could be a not-too-small step in that direction. Which is where I think Workflowy shines – in its adaptability and flexibility. The ultimate ‘solution’ to David Allen’s dream will be in the mind of each individual user. And to me, the ultimate solution lies not just in the technology, but also in the adaptability of the software to meet the individual needs of every human brain who uses it. He encouraged anyone else to take up where he left off, and to continue the development of that ideal software. He still sees that ideal productivity app as an elusive ‘Holy Grail’.Īt that recent ‘World Summit’ David Allen revealed and made open-source all his own sketches and drawings over the years, of what he thought that ideal software would look like. And at his most recent ‘GTD World Summit’ recently, he wanted to discuss and share his never-ending and elusive work to design the ‘ideal GTD Productivity App.’ He still contends to this day, that despite years of effort by many accomplished software designers, no software has reached what he envisioned, as that ‘ideal GTD app’. I read somewhere recently, that David Allen plans to finally ‘retire’. I believe Workflowy allows for a greater variety and combinations of tags and contexts than any other software I know of.Īnd here’s another conceptual idea about what Rawbytz has done here, that also intrigues me. Some of my Workflowy tags come right out of David Allen’s book, such as: and many more. ![]() ![]() As one example, think about how easily the Tags in Workflowy can fit so many GTD contexts. For example, Frank and others have often discussed their Workflowy products using GTD terminology and examples. And I believe it can adapt to many aspects of David Allen’s GTD (Getting Things Done). I’ve used Workflowy for several years now. I’ve created many shortcuts already, and have purchased the PowerPack and am just starting to dig into it. I’m fascinated by the work you’ve done, Rawbytz, and I echo every great thing the others have said.
