will.sargent	Posted May 31, 2008 in: Document Error Score: 0 will.sargent Posted: May 31, 2008 Score: 0 Looks like the documentation for adding a task is wrong: both canceled and reference are listed as 9. * 9 = Canceled * 9 = Reference I'm assuming reference is 10. :-)
will.sargent	Posted May 05, 2008 in: Subtasks ARGHHH! Score: 0 will.sargent Posted: May 05, 2008 Score: 0 Go to account settings, and then click on the edit link next to the "fields used". Then check subtasks. Not very intuitive, I know.
will.sargent	Posted Apr 24, 2008 in: Repeat with a limit Score: 0 will.sargent Posted: Apr 24, 2008 Score: 0 I think you'd be better off using Google Calendar for that kind of thing.

will.sargent	Posted Apr 07, 2008 in: Apps you use on a daily basis Score: 1 will.sargent Posted: Apr 07, 2008 Score: 1 Ooo, good catch. I've been using Google Notebook for that.
will.sargent	Posted Apr 06, 2008 in: Apps you use on a daily basis Score: 1 will.sargent Posted: Apr 06, 2008 Score: 1 I'm curious to see what people use to track their time and activities on a daily basis. I'll go first: toodledo.com -- obviously. joesgoals.com -- tracks daily and weekly habits, good for weightwatching. google calendar -- best notification and integration for calendar events. rescuetime.com -- keeps track of where I use my time (some interesting stats) leechblock -- a Firefox addon that prevents me from reading blogs instead of getting work done.
will.sargent	Posted Apr 06, 2008 in: Selecting multiple tasks? Score: 1 will.sargent Posted: Apr 06, 2008 Score: 1 There really should be some way to mass edit or delete a set of tasks. If you look at gmail's UI, you can select a bunch of tasks using select boxes, and then perform an action on them. In Toodledo, the select box is used for completing tasks, but I think having that the 'complete task' column as a submit button would work just as well.
will.sargent	Posted Apr 04, 2008 in: How do you filter out Waiting context? Score: 1 will.sargent Posted: Apr 04, 2008 Score: 1 You'd be better off using folders for task state, and the contexts for the general "area". So you'd have an Action folder and a Waiting Folder, for example.
will.sargent	Posted Apr 01, 2008 in: How are you using Folders? Score: 0 will.sargent Posted: Apr 01, 2008 Score: 0 @jwelshjr I typically use 'View By Folder' and then 'Filter by Context' which cuts down to only the stuff in front of me. I typically use goals for projects, along with some judicious use of subtasks. I find goals kinda kludgy (seriously, I have over 100 long term, medium and short term goals) but if I do the two previous steps and then 'sort by goals' then I can work it out.
will.sargent	Posted Mar 31, 2008 in: In Box Default Score: 0 will.sargent Posted: Mar 31, 2008 Score: 0 This is something that I have trouble with as well. Generally I use an external tool or a list and then dump it in all at once.
will.sargent	Posted Mar 30, 2008 in: Projects in GTD Score: 1 will.sargent Posted: Mar 30, 2008 Score: 1 I've always found projects in GTD to be one of the vaguest areas. Theoretically it's just a list of all the areas where you have open loops (more than one next action). But that doesn't take into account short term goals, long term goals, places where they conflict, etc. I can understand it from the perspective that GTD is about making sure short term actions take place first, but how do you scale it... up?
will.sargent	Posted Mar 29, 2008 in: Command line client in Ruby available Score: -1 will.sargent Posted: Mar 29, 2008 Score: -1 How to print out tasks arranged by context: require 'rubygems' require 'toodledo' require 'yaml' # Look for a file called $HOME/.toodledo/user-config.yml and read it in HOME = ENV["HOME"] \|\| ENV["HOMEPATH"] \|\| File::expand_path("~") TOODLEDO_D = File::join(HOME, ".toodledo") CONFIG_F = File::join(TOODLEDO_D, "user-config.yml") config = YAML.load(IO::read(CONFIG_F)) # This will work if you don't want to go through yaml #config = { # "connection" => { # "url" => "http://www.toodledo.com/api.php", # "user_id" => "<your user id>", # "password" => "<your password>" # } #} Toodledo.set_config(config) Toodledo::begin do \|session\| session.get_contexts().each do \|context\| criteria = { :folder => 'Action', :context => context, :notcomp => true } tasks = session.get_tasks(criteria) puts "#{context.name}" if (! tasks.empty?) tasks.each { \|task\| puts " #{task.title}" } end end

will.sargent	Posted Mar 22, 2008 in: SMS to Toodledo Score: 0 will.sargent Posted: Mar 22, 2008 Score: 0 Interesting tip: If you have Twitter set up to receive SMS messages, you can then send SMS messages through Twitter directly to Toodledo. This can be more convenient than Jott, since you don't have to state the contact name, and you can use the text template feature to add folders and contexts. Note that you have to use the Toodledo syntax: I have a text template set to "d toodledo <text> *Inbasket" which will send to the Inbasket folder.
