I have to agree with Proxstud IF your a windows user. I used Nirvana then Nirvana 2 for quite some time but bought a MacBook Pro last year and began converting to Omnifocus. It's bar none the best GTD application there is. The iPhone app is outstanding also
@thedeeman Check out his whole system and what he is doing will make sense to you. He gets paid a heap of money by people who aren't fools to teach this stuff, and for good reason. Just my 2 cents.
@maddog956 I use a GTD Web Application that is always open. I normally capture things directly into my Digital Inbox of my software but in some cases, I get several things coming at me at once and I simply write it down on a sticky note which sits by my mouse and when I am ready to get going again, I capture these things into my digital GTD software. I just skipped the physical inbox because it's usually easy for me to enter it directly into my digital inbox.
The small adjustment I can make is to use a small note pad for the times when several things come in at once and toss them into the physical inbox and process it at another time. I was doing what David described in a digital way but I should use the physical inbox as well. So I picked up a nugget. I am a big time Tech Geek and use software tools for most of my GTD system.
@happysouthpaw I have been using Nirvanahq for a long time now. It's in beta but will go live very soon. It follows the simplicity of GTD in it's User Interface and makes managing things easy. I have tried many GTD apps to keep my system digital but most fall short. Using NirvanaHQ, Evernote, Gmail, Gcal and some iPhone apps, I have a complete system that prevents things from falling through the cracks.

@thedeeman Common sense isn't always common practice. The "Getting Things Done" book was the best ten bucks I've ever spent.

What is the innovation here? Seems like what all of us do anyhow.

Simple but powerful. I can relate exactly to your example and I must say that I was not using my inbox in the way you just described. Thanks again.

@ProxStud What? Not using it that way? How is that even possible? ; -)
