Master Getting Things Done the David Allen Way with Evernote*
by David Donaldson and Joe Allen. This book was a very quick read at only 42 pages. Having read a number of books on Evernote and the Getting Things Done (GTD) system, I am not sure if this was worth the money; however, the book was honest in that it did provide a basic orientation of how to use Evernote to manage your GTD system.

Good use of Evernote.
Though this short booklet could have used a bit of an editors touch, it was clear and concise. A good blending of Evernote and GTD.

i downloaded the Kindle ebbok when it was free. A member of the Evernote for Genealogists Facebook closed group recommended it while it was free.
I give it the fourth star because the tips walked me through some different ways of using notes, such as from my ereader camera, that I had not tried before. I also learned about David Allen's GTD productivity method that I had not used before.
I recommend this more for Evernote beginners than someone who frequently uses Evernote, or I recommend it if you can still download it for free.

Good Advice, makes me wanna GTD
I haven't implemented the GTD system as of yet, ask struggling with the thought of juggling a myriad of composition books, but the use of Evernote has me revisiting the process.
This book provides basic fundamentals of GTD and more specifically how to utilize Evernote to make it all come together. I've already downloaded the app....
Now just need to set-up a block of time to do it!

Useful for beginners
I liked this book but in general already knew a lot of the information and had been hoping for more tips I didn't know but that isn't the Author's fault at all. I think this is a really useful tool for people who are less familiar with Evernote, though.

Love the concept, but I like my system better
GTD is great. There are many different ways to organize Evernote to use with it. This book is okay. Seems a little vague on how to do it. There are some more detailed ideas out there.

good information albeit basic
Good guide for those new to Evernote and gtd. As an advanced user of both, I still learned a few new things.
