Best To-Do List Software? 532
JojoLinkyBob writes "Greetings, Council of Slashdot. I am curious what everyone here recommends as their favorite organizational software. Specifically, I am trying to find a simple freeware/open-source todo list manager. In the past, I've dabbled with TreePad,
Shadow Plan, Mantis, and various virtual sticky- note apps ..all with mixed success. Currently, I'm back to my old-school ways of scribbling my todo's on the back of each Daily Dilbert Calendar page, which sadly means today is June 23 :)"

Switch to The Far Side [thefarside.com] - their desk calendars are much bigger and can accommodate many more notes. *grin*

You do know that the TODO-list is patented [slashdot.org], don't you?
All your base to do are belong to MS.

One caveat, it's not freeware; it could be as expensive as a dollar, but you'll recoup that quickly with the electricity savings.

I set up my dad's office today with a wifi network, and he wrote down the WEP key on a stickey note on his monitor. I stared and said "wow.. I've read about you in a lot of security books"

Perhaps you should consider circumventing the patent by making a list of "Stuff I gotta remember not to forget" ?
