iGTD no longer being developed
A comment from a reader made us wonder about the status of iGTD, a freeware program that was well received when it came out a couple of years ago. From all accounts, it does a splendid job of organizing tasks using the popular getting-things-done method. After some rooting around in the iGTD forum, we found this message from the site administrator, Steve Sleet:
In keeping with my word, I am sadly posting that I have given up on iGTD and the promising alpha builds and am moving on. It is very interesting that iGTD still gets numerous mentions out there and a deep shame that such a great app could not continue and evolve to integrate with the iPhone which for me is a must have and IMHO, vital in any GTD app now.
As it stands, iGTD remains a good app. But if you’d like a free program that is still in development, you might want to try Thinking Rock — although the thought of a 39 MB Java app is enough to make me leery.
Lifehacker did an article a year ago on the best GTD programs, with Thinking Rock among them. Also mentioned was a well-regarded web app called Remember The Milk. But a survey of readers found that most people prefer pen and paper to any program. You can’t get much more freeware than that.
