Hi everyone, I came across this recently and wasn't sure if anyone heard of it.

http://www.thesecretweapon.org/

It uses the GTD methodology with the integration of Evernote

interesting site, right? it is way too much organizational work for me, but it is slick, well-done, and an interesting combination.

this is going to sound strange, but i don't trust it. i know. what does "trust" have to do with it? well, i could never figure out who was running the site (a drink maker?) or why they set it up: what's their angle? so, i know about it, and have read it over (and watched some of the movies), but don't really know if i ought to be recommending it to others. i feel like there is something i am missing.

I have based my En + GTD system on TSW (The Secret Weapon) and am very happy with the result. In support of Grumpy I have simplified the structure a bit. (Just one Notebook) but the who, what, where, when format makes good sense to me. I have spent some time on their forum and can say that A) I hate their forum software, but They just want to share what is working for them as a group. The majority of their company uses the system. EN + GTD is intensely personal, any pre-made structure you pick up needs modifications to "work for you". I started with Dan Gold's structure, found TSW and now I have a hybrid design that I really like.
I would love to see TSW gain some traction and become popular because it deserves it. Don't worry, nothing fishey going on they just love the system.

"The Secret Weapon" videos are very neat. Polished. I love the intro which makes me think of 1970's style comic book action shows, like Batman.

I don't think the creators of TSW had anything subversive in mind when they shared their system--it's pretty clearly a subtle advertising move, given the drink products the company makes. AFAIK, I'll keep using the system for a while to see how it goes and report back here. I actually didn't find the setup that cumbersome (<30 mins. setting up tags and importing tasks from elsewhere), and I really like the universal entry options Evernote already possesses (button in Outlook, email items in, iPhone app).

I've added one thing so far: a Projects notebook, to make the system a little bit more GTD compliant. There, I keep longer project lists, notes, and supporting materials, so that my action list can just be actionable items.
