Probably not the recession at work this time

Another store closes

While this one could be attributed to the recession, I have long believed that Franklin Covey was on its downslope. With the ubiquity of handheld organizational programs in Palms, iPhones, and other smart devices, and the equal emphasis on DIY GTD solutions that get away from the formulae of the gurus and instead consider what works for you, the Franklin Covey program was more or less doomed to eventual dissolution. (By the way, that link is just phenomenal at covering the basics of GTD, thanks to the everywhere-at-once Gina Trapini.)

Still, I loved this store once upon a time and gave them an awful lot of my money before figuring out what I really needed and could put into a Moleskin with my own weekly program.
