When you say you use a kanban-style system, does that just refer to the fact that there are columns that you drag items between, or does it specifically mean that you also make use of an ‘in progress’ column?
If so, do you have one for each ‘todo’ column, or what?
And do you have a column for the ‘capture’ aspect of GTD, or do you do something else for that?
It just refers to the fact that there are columns that you drag items between. I don’t even really know how a “proper” kanban works.
If a new task occurs to me in the middle of something else, I’ll temporarily put it in a left (high-priority) column, just so I don’t forget it, and then later when I’m at my computer and have a moment to look at it, I might decide to drag it to a right (low-priority) column instead of doing it.
Yeah some of my to-do items are of the form “skim X”. Inside the “card” I might have a few words about how I originally came across X and what I’m hoping to get out of skimming it.

Thanks. Do you use this system for reading list(s) too?
