Online GTD application: iCommit
Another upcoming beta of an online GTD application.

In the string of online GTD applications approaching beta there’s another contender.
iCommit is an online GTD application. When I found it, I instantly registered, tried it out for about two minutes, and then dismissed it. Any GTD application that requires me to click to open a popup menu, navigate to a submenu and click again to create a new project or next action clearly doesn’t get it.
What is 'GTD'?
GTD stands for "Getting Things Done", and is a "work-life management system" and a book by David Allen.

Tracks is a free GTD web app written in Ruby on Rails.
A couple of days ago I got an email notifying me of a new teaser video of iCommit v3. While I don’t think it reveals very much, it looks a lot more interesting than the current version. So I’ve signed up for beta testing this one too.
The downside to iCommit is, as someone else has experienced, is that there’s no guarantee that it will be available tomorrow. And GTD is all about putting everything into a system you can trust.
It looks like I’m going to have to write a series of articles with reviews of all these applications at some point. But first I have to gain beta access to them … And I guess beta testers might be under some kind of confidentiality agreement until the applications are out of beta too, so it might be a while.
