Happy to report that GTDTiddlyWIki has won me over thus far, but like most of the solutions I had tried I would forget to open them after a few days sort of negating the purpose. My final method was to set it as a Homepage in a browser I rarely used, I chose Camino. But that wasn’t enough; I still needed to remember to launch Camino. Final outcome is that I set up a very annoying crontab to open Camino every 30 minutes; this ensures I don’t lose focus of getting things done. Below is my crontab entry for this task (Windows users I believe need to set up Scheduled Tasks).
0/30 * * * * open /Applications/Camino.app
You could just as easily open up any other application or site that suits your workflow habits a bit better.

Just came across a post related, something else to check out. GTD Inbox it apparently a nice Firefox add-on that won’t really change your Firefox until you visit you GMail account online, a new dashboard for helping you GTD, this is helpful if you haven’t implemented GMail IMAP already (which I have). Worth checking into however, maybe it will still play nicely with IMAP.
