Great Idea
Thanks for the comment Susan.
I was also thinking about using an online application such as Backpack or Google Calendar but what kept me from doing this is that I don't really like trusting my personal data with a third party. For some this will work great and is probably a really good option. The other problem is taking my data with me when I'm offline or don't have access to a web browser but for Google calendar there are third party applications to synchronize your desktop calendar applications (I've never heard of the applications you mention - will have to take a look). You may want to take a look at Spanning Sync for synchronizing iCal with Google Calendar on the Mac. I've heard really good things about it.
Good luck with mastering gtd and blog about your experience so others can benefit from it! If you do it would be great it if you dropped me a line here to let me know.
