Has anyone ever used an online to-do site?

For example: http://www.rememberthemilk.com/tour/
RTM - Remember The Milk - has some pretty fancy features and claims to integrate well with lots of things.

I'm really terrible at remembering things I need to do (if you've seen me writing on my hands it's usually a reminder to do something I'm afraid I'll forget) and I'm not opposed to trying an online solution to the problem.

I've used Remember the Milk (when I, erm, remember to) and it's pretty good for what it does. I've got it integrated into my iGoogle home page and my Google Calendar, and that works well. Now if I can just set it up so it reminds me to use it, that'd be a big step forward.

That's a great example of recursion *grin*

I use Remember the Milk because it integrates with Google, but I also don't use it as much as I should.

Does that mean you like it?

Wow. As much as I am a huge list maker and a huge organizer and hugely devoted to my computer and my not-so-huge portable devices, I honestly can't see this as working any better than a 3x4" paper notebook in my pocket. I could definitely see myself spending a lot of time *playing* with it, though.

I use the basic to do list on the google home page...

It's okay. It's competent.

I use hiveminder, which has iGoogle gadgets as well as a unix command-line-interface option (via the magic of textfiles).

I use the to-do list in iCal and that works well for me. It's not online, though, so I can only access it from my Mac.

I use it as well, having heard of hiveminder from srl. I like the IM gadget integration so I can use a version of their commandline via AIM. I'm working on some other kinds of online offline integration.

I've tried more than one to-do site, and I've had an RTM account for over a year, but I've barely used it. Given the amount of effort required, it seemed just as easy to jot down a daily to-do list on paper.

Now that I have a Google calendar, though, it might be worth trying again. Hm.

I haven't really used any of the online versions of these, unless you count Exchange tasks (which sync with my Windows Mobile phone, multiple PCs, etc). The real key is how you partition and organize the lists. As I'm sure you know, Getting Things Done pretty much gives you a kick-ass framework for that - you might want to consider (re)reading it.

Also, Mike pointed me at http://www.gubb.net/ a while ago - now *that* one I really feel like I should be using for some reason... :)
