Omni Group is reportedly partnering with
The David Allen Company to support the Getting Things Done methodology through the Omni Group's task management application, OmniFocus. The David Allen Company was established by David Allen, the author of "Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity."
OmniFocus is designed to quickly capture the thoughts of the users and allow them to store, manage, and process them into actionable to-do items. It is flexible enough for any task management style, claims Omni Group.

Alert) and iPod touch users. Getting Things Done (GTD) is a way to manage everything from your day to day stuff to your special aims. This manual intends to explore the implementation of this system in OmniFocus by helping the users to every little thought, to-do, or idea and take a look at all their captured ideas one at a time and decide what it is and when you’ll accomplish it.
“We're thrilled to be working more closely with The David Allen Company," said Ken Case, CEO of the Omni Group, in a release. "David's work on GTD has been a big inspiration for us, and it's been great to work with DavidCo's professional trainers, clarifying both our understanding of GTD and their understanding of how best to implement a GTD workflow in Mac and iPhone environments.”
OmniFocus helps the GTD users to create their ideas and turn them into manageable, bite-sized pieces. OmniFocus makes use of GTD’s logical system to help the users multitask with various issues. The OmniFocus interface is laid out to be as GTD-friendly as possible, claims the company.
