What are techniques to adopt the e-mail charter? While this sounds like an interesting subject, this type of Q&A site works best when you ask very specific, answerable questions. As written, this question is more of a rallying cry and a conversation starter. This type of brainstorming activity works better in a traditional, threaded forum. It doesn't really work well for a Stack Exchange site. |

Handling digital clutter Please feel free to try again and ask about a very specific problem you run into in your everyday personal productivity. "How to handle too much stuff" is the subject of a book (or an entire bookshelf), not a Q&A site like this. Take any one of those specific problems that you truly cannot resolve, outline what you have tried and where you are getting stuck. That's how a Q&A site like this works best. I have to close this because there are simply waaay too many broad, open discussions for this site to work. |

“To Do list” sites Creating a survey with reviews of the entire online-list space isn't really what this site is about. If you have a very specific problem you are trying to solve, perhaps someone could recommend an appropriate system for your needs. Until then, I have to close this. Sorry. |

Which productivity systems are best for which type of people? Stack Exchange sites work best when you ask specific questions about problems you actually have. Tell us specifically what problem you are trying to solve and hopefully someone here can offer sage advice. But trying to profile what type of people should use which system in the entire field of productivity will only generate an overly broad, chatty discussion. That's not really what works well for this site. I have to close this, but please feel free to try again. |

How do I speed up turning ideas into text? Two things -- Add that info to your question (above) and try to be more specific. Your post is about to be voted closed as "not a real question." And (2), you may want to ask some specific "helping me get it to sound right" questions on writers.stackexchange.com. |

How do I speed up turning ideas into text? Typing speed? Writer's block? Fleshing out ideas? Spelling errors? You may want to state more specifically what problem you are trying to solve so uses aren't guessing how they can help. |

How does sleep debt decay? I think you would get a much more expert answer with the folks specialized in Fitness & Nutrition . Check out that site. They deal a lot more with issues of general wellness. |

What can I do to fight procrastination? The primary issue is that asking something as broad as "how to fight procrastination" on a productivity site will only leave users guessing how to help you, exactly. Procrastination is a very broad topic and a large part of what this site is about. It's better to ask very specific questions which can be reasonably answered in this type of Q&A format. |

What is “Getting Things Done” (GTD)? We try not to fill the site up with really basic questions and "What is a ..." definitions, especially so early in a site's beta. General-reference questions are not generally suitably interesting enough to attract the "experts" you'll need to help build this site. A Wikipedia link answers your question directly and THE "Getting Things Done" book is obviously the definitive resource. This site does not yet have the "Closed as General Reference" reason, so I have to close this as the less aptly named "Not a Real Question." |
