This post is part of a series I’ve dubbed the GTD Master Series – a collection of short interviews with well-known GTD bloggers who many consider to be masters of their craft. Enjoy!
Today on GTD Masters, we’ll be chatting with Jason Echols, the second half of the productivity duo over at Black Belt Productivity. While I must confess that I haven’t spoken to Jason as much as I have to his partner-in-crime, he comes off as a very cool customer. Michael suggested him as a candidate for my little interview here, and he was nice enough to oblige. So sit back, relax and drink in the wisdom of another productivity ninja!

As some of you might’ve noticed, the site was offline for about 12-14 hours, through this afternoon. My hosting company had a scheduled power outage last night that went horribly haywire, but all appears to be well now. Apologies for any inconvenience!

Ever since I came up with the idea for the GTD Masters Series, I’d secretly hoped to get the chance to interview the great Merlin Mann of 43Folders.com. And as I was pretty certain he wouldn’t just volunteer his time, I thought I’d ask him – so I emailed him a couple days ago to [...]

So after spending a few months with this new-fangled GTD thing using only paper-based tools, I can’t help but notice all the super-cool web apps that keep cropping up all over the place. I’ve played with a couple of them (SimpleGTD, Vitalist and Nozbe – the last only briefly), and while some of them are [...]

Just about anybody that works in medium-to-large size company has probably experienced the dreaded IT/Help Desk guy. You know the one I mean – the poorly-dressed, over-confident, slightly smelly guy who knows how to get your deleted email back or maybe get rid of those annoying pop-up windows.

You know, after [...]

How many times have you gone out and bought a new article of clothing, gotten it home and found little paper envelope containing a couple extra buttons for your new threads? Thankfully, my wife buys most of my clothes (really, it’s wonderful), so I rarely encounter this. But this past weekend, in preparation for a [...]
