Wow, thanks for the great review. Definitely help make my decision on toDolist easier. It’s too bad it doesnt have a PPC version, but oh well…

Thanks.

Thanks very much for your post on todolist. I had been trying to figure out what was the best nested to-do list software for my work, and was struggling to choose among several different ones (including todlist and MLO). I was almost settled on MLO, despite being uncomfortable with a fair number of things about it. I had dismissed TDL because it seemed, as you said, too daunting at first. However, after reading your post I decided to give TDL another try. After about 15 minutes, I love it. It’s lightweight, and really fantastic at what it does. Your post saved me from going down the wrong road. THANKS!!

Chaim,

ToDoList is head and shoulders above anything I have seen for managing todo lists.
Having said that, I barely use it anymore, as I have moved to paper

Jose,

I am an on-again-off-again user of MLO. It never quite seems to stick with me. Now that you have used ToDoList for a year, how do you like it?

[...] For todo-list stuff I have gone through different phases. I started with MLO (my life organized). Then I found toDoList which is way better in every aspect (see my review here: academic productivity � Download: toDoList (Windows)) Then I realized that I have plenty of hard deadline tasks, and that I really needed a calendar integrated. For that, the best tool I found is agenda at once: academic productivity � Programs: Agenda at once Hope this helps… [...]

[...] These are tiny tasks. The problem is not so much the time it takes to do them, but the fact that they interrupt your flow. (see graph: the times *I* use the program are the green bars; they are spread all over my working day!). I have measured the time I spend on my current time-management tool, Agenda at once. Although it decreased with time of usage, the average is still quite high, at 11 about minutes and a half per day. I have also logged times when I was using MyLife Organized and ToDoList for about the same number of days (let me know if you want to see similar graphs) and the average times where 17:30 and 14:35 respectively. People using paper and pencil may think that they spend less time doing this, but as far as I know nobody has measured the length of the interruption of finding pen, agenda or paper, looking for the right place to annotate the task, etc. [...]
