Would you care to elaborate on this a bit? In your example the daily outcome is:

Help people communicate more quickly -> Launch beta of FaceSpace -> Call Jason for programmer recommendations

But the actual outcome (task) for that day would be "Call Jason for programmer recommendations", right? I mean the "Launch beta of FaceSpace" seems more of a long term or strategic goal, and the "Help people communicate more quickly" more of a purpose, or like they say nowadays, a mantra.

So if you repeat this every day, isn't this overwhelming?

And there are a lot of intermediate steps between the "Call Jason" and the "Launch website", so how do you keep track of these?

Finally, how do you see this as a substitute for GTD? (Since GTD is a practical approach to keep track of everyday's bits of todos, that appear from everywhere.)
