How I use Emacs and Org-mode to implement GTD

Org-mode is an unmatched tool for keeping track of your day to day tasks. I have yet to find an alternative that offers scheduling tasks with as much flexibility as org-mode. The biggest barrier for me, however, is that org-mode runs inside of Emacs. As a Vim user, I have tried all of the org-mode implementations for Vim and have yet to find one that can come even close. Further, fitting something similar to org-mode into Vim goes against the simplicity of Vim which I value so much already.<p>Taskwarrior is a decent command line alternative to org-mode, but is lacking in the scheduling of tasks department.

Procrastination at his best! <i>Writing</i> a blog post about how to <i>optimize</i> your tasks by <i>customizing</i> and <i>configuring</i> a mode of <i>Emacs</i>!<p>Obviously, I'm not totally serious here since it seems that he use it effectively each weeks; And I'm also happy that he shared it with us. However, talking for me, my best todo process consists of "Do it <i>NOW</i> else write it in todo.txt".

Here's another good overview of an org-mode workflow, goes WAY more in-depth that just GTD:<p><a href="http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html" rel="nofollow">http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html</a>

I use orgmode every day. There is also a nice iPhone/iPad app to have your schedule on the go. <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobileorg/id335805599?mt=8" rel="nofollow">http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobileorg/id335805599?mt=8</a>

Let alone the switch to Emacs, but I've been trying to implement GTD since college, using all sorts of tools, and I've read the book I don't know how many times, and I still feel like it's over my head.<p>Are there any alternatives?

Does anyone know where you can see other user's org configurations? Or a canonical configuration? It'd be interesting to see how users use org-modes capabilities in different ways. (I don't mean blog posts, just raw configs)
