The Foldera Beta
I’m in the Foldera beta. It’s one of 5 billion GTD online apps I tried before deciding to go with a Wordpress blog as a GTD system. It looks like a very clean, simple, Ajaxy set up. Pretty intuitive and simple. Basically, you create folders for projects. Each folder contains a calendar, emails, files you upload and tasks. You can view everything in a project, or view your collected tasks from all the project folders.
In short, it looks like a very simple way to actually do everything you need with GTD.
I wonder what it’s going to cost when it’s out of beta, though. Similar things I looked at today were around $5.

Hi Sapphire.
A basic Foldera account (ad-supported) will always be free. We’re putting the finishing touches on the tiered pricing structure we’ll be announcing soon that provides enhanced security, additional storage, and premium services not included in the basic account.
I’m also a big fan of the GTD productivity system (been practicing it since 2001) and the applicability of Foldera to that kind of project and context organization of information really appealed to me. It’s a big part of the reason I decided to say “yes” when I was recruited to join the company a year ago.
Despite your decision to go with a blog to manage your projects and actions, I hope you’ll continue to explore Foldera and let us know what you think.

I will keep exploring it. I needed a solution immediately - one I didn’t have to ask “How does this work?” - but I’m trying Foldera to.
To my way of thinking, it matches GTD better than a lot of other systems. And it’s not terribly complicated, which is also important.

Hi
You might go and sign up again and I would think you would get creditials in a day or so. That’s how long it took my girlfriend to get hers after signing up

Same here, Ji. I don’t see any way I can invite you, but I got my invitation within a day of signing up.
