I've been a long time OmniFocus user and am a daily (or habitual) emacs user so it only makes sense for me to dabble with org mode for a GTD system. After all, when I'm writing code, why not have my projects todo lists in the next window. So this morning I figured I'd give org mode a try. It's not polished like OmniFocus or Things but seriously; why does a todo list need satin pajamas? I'm not sure I'll stick with it but I at least need to give it a trial run for a week or two.

How I Roll
When I get an email from a client that needs attention I use the clipper that comes with OmniFocus (Clip-o-tron 3000) to create a new task with a link to the email embedded. I also like to send research urls from Safari for projects to my todo lists as notes. This helps keep me on top of things (if that's possible) as projects progress.
