What does everyone do for a living? Just curious. Want to see if I can relate to anyone and how GTD plays out in their work.

I'm a software developer. Right now, I've taken some time off of working for others to live off of my savings and launch a website. While it's a small site by most standards, we have nearly 5K members and I'm the only one working on it. So I wear a lot of "hats" - graphic designer, coder, biz guy, and community manager.

GTD has been a huge help, since I have a lot of little things to keep track of. I'd been juggling many them in my head before getting into GTD a few weeks ago. Already it's made quite a positive difference.
