Hi Jennifer,

Really up to you. If you have a handheld that your Next Action lists can sync to, that could work. Especially if your list manager has a “Notes” or “Memos” section. If you are a paper kind of gal, put them in whatever section of that binder you store Reference.

OK, I am an organizationally challenged SAH mom. I can’t quite figure out where I am supposed to keep all the checklists. I have a great filing system in alphabetical order, a tickler file, folders for projects, support materials, etc. but can’t quite figure out where the checklists fit in this scheme. Please help!

Yes – KeePass Password Safe – http://keepass.info/

Just don’t write down the master password and keep it under your keyboard!

I have some of these, and they reallty do help.

Another suggestion to keep with household items is paint formulas. When I get a can of paint mixed, I always ask for a duplicate label – that way when the one on the can fades/gets covered with paint, I still have the formula.

Does anyone have a good suggestion for the myriad of passwords we have to keep secret, secure, and then change when we start to remember them?

I am a google (task, calendar and mail) man and also a Dropboxer. Since I got my android phone – it all now fits tight. I leveled up my GTD belt :)

I also did try Evernote, but didn’t get it together for me – migth wanna try it someday/maybe the way you recommended it ;)

The lists you have are inspiring … time to get some more lists to manage ;)

@Michael Malcangio:

I have a reference folder in Dropbox that I use to keep files like these lists. It’s easy for me to print to PDF or copy-and-paste to a text file and save it in there.

I also have my Inbox folder on the desktop of all of my machines tied to Dropbox as well.

Bonus! I can make a particular file a Favorite in the iPhone/iPod Touch Dropbox app, and it stores on them on the device for offline use.

Ryan, you can keep your ‘To Read’ list on Goodreads.com.

I am keeping all the books I am currently reading, have read, and suggested to me list.

My friends and I can recommend books to each other on this site.

@Michael Malcangio: I agree completely about Evernote. AAnd I know it was a typo, but I love “informatino” — perhaps that is the fundamental particle of data?
