GTD: Zero Bookmarks in my Browser

As you might have guessed I’m in Getting Things Done mode. So after setting up my personal wiki, the new home for my weekly reviews, I turned my attention to the browser. I spend a hell of lot of time in my browser so I decided to spend a few minutes seeing if [...]

GTD: My Personal Wiki
