New GTD Category: @Radar
I am a big fan of David Allen's GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology. Lately I have been struggling with some of the recommended categories for certain items that land in my "inbox". Examples of context related categories are @Project, @WaitingFor, @Computer, @Agenda, @Errands, @Call, and so on. Lately, I have wanted to keep track of certain items, without making them actionable. This seems to contradict the point of GTD. Yet there are times when I simply want to recall a topic or situation to mind without making it a project, something I am waiting on, or something I am required to do anything about. I needed something that would keep a matter in front of me, but not require me to do anything about it. Thus, I propose a new category to the GTD community: @Radar.

For all of these pit-stops to have a Venetian theme (unintentionally) is a little remarkable. ...at least I think so.
