GTD with AniAniWeb as personal homepage wiki

The AniAni is a personal WikiWiki from the Squeak Smalltalk Swiki designer.

For a personal webpage as wiki-homepage I have a GTD tip: when using the asterix to create submenu or topic such as *aule* - when you click the CREATE button that then appears beside that word on your page, do not opt for "Include Parent Menu Items".

By not including the parent menu items, the distraction options drop dramatically. GTD trumps AAD.

If you have not tried a Smalltalk wiki before, all you need is to get setup before a mere pair of asterix suffice to create topic links or web links (when placed around http://someaddress.)

I have a post over at aule-browser.blogspot.com on what you need to know to run an AniAniWeb on a mere netbook or the like (not itself serving the web.)

One last suggestion: choose 8888 as your port when in the setup as it is the least nuisance if you opt to run another personal web server (the port choices are restricted to very few by the setup app.)

For implementing GTD you can use this web-based application:

Gtdagenda.com

You can use it to manage your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use checklists, schedules and a calendar.
Comes with a mobile version too, and with an Android app.
