The GTD system incorporates lists and sequential action steps, which makes it ideal for adaptation and implementation as a software application. A number of commercial products, both web-based services and desktop applications, exist. Several blogs -- most notably Merlin Mann's 43 Folders -- dedicate most or all of their content to the practice of GTD.
