I breakdown at the intersection of projects and contexts. If I have a page for a project with a set of to do's (plus support materials etc.) I can't assign a specific to do to a context. For example, if my next action on the project is "email vendor to confirm price", i'd like backpack to pull out all my email list items when I am ready to do a bunch of emails. I think backpack will work best for GTD if you can tag individual list items. I love backpack but have had a tough time getting it to work for GTD.

In general, I like your blog and think you do a good job. But yes, I still think it's good form to disclose affiliate links. All it takes it one line below the post. Advertising is something entirely different IMO. Everyone can spot that easily. Brett,

As you may have noticed, this blog is supported by advertisements, some of which are more obvious than others. Now, while I don't choose to advertise (no pun intended) the presence of affiliate links within my blog posts, I've never been anything but honest about them when asked. If that somehow rubs you wrong, well, I'm sorry to hear that. If you're insinuating that I am in any way affiliated with 37signals (other than as a customer), that's incorrect. And I'd be happy to get a representative from their organization to confirm that for you. Thanks for reading! @Al
