			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I can&#8217;t believe I only just found <a href="http://www.pixelofink.com/">Pixel of Ink</a>, a website offering links to free/cheap eBooks for the Kindle. The links point to amazon.com (as opposed to .co.uk, so other UK readers may need to adapt the links appropriately) and the site appears to be funded by the affiliate program.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also worth noting the disclaimers:</p>
<blockquote><p>Though free at time of posting, <em>prices may change at any time</em>. Please verify that the “Kindle Price” is $0.00. <strong>If you see a price for “Prime Members” or “read for free”, then the book is NOT free any longer.</strong></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-size: small;"><em>Prices are subject to change without notice. For non-U.S. readers, Kindle content availability and pricing will vary. </em></span></p></blockquote>
<p>Well worth a look if you have a Kindle!</p>

<p><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tomorrow-Other-Secrets-Time-Management/dp/0340909129/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;s=books&#038;qid=1228745078&#038;sr=8-1&#038;tag=surferbillcom-21">Buy Mark Forster’s Do It Tomorrow book</a>.</p>

<p>The author describes the core features of each methodology, compares the two and makes recommendations on which might be best suited to you.</p>
<p>I use a combination of both, taking advantage of the collection and organisation pieces of GTD with the action methodology of DIT. I&#8217;ve been using this since October and it&#8217;s working out for me well so far!</p>
