I keep my notes in notepad++ as plaintext. I've always thought of this as a time saver because it removes any time wasted not actually working. Now I'm reconsidering.

I haven't been using GTD but I used a vaguely similar system of notes to keep track of what I need to do. This article has really focused some of the areas I might be improve this, mainly through giving more information about each task (context, time, energy, priority).

I think this is where a more sophisticated tool might help, because it will be hard to organise that in plaintext and somehting with a columnar way of representing this information in tables will help (btw open for suggestions that aren't excel!).
