This post needs to start with a disclaimer. I was initially going to compare two task managers, Remember the Milk and Toodledo, giving equal time to both as I put them through the paces. But along the way, something strange happened. As I put the two services to the test, I fell head over heels for one of them. I’m talking about the kind of love I previously have only felt for Evernote and LastPass. This post will still touch upon both Remember the Milk and Toodledo, as each one is useful in its own way, but you will see a bias here, and a more thorough discussion of Toodledo, as I abandoned Remember the Milk after a few days of using both.

Hello, I'm Evan. I write about tech from my perspective – that of the average tech geek, sometimes with my lawyer glasses on. You can also find me on Twitter and at my real-life job as a lawyer. MORE ABOUT ME.
Today, 40Tech is pleased to present a guest post by Larry Behrens from PoorDadTech.Com.
It started with a Facebook ad, of all things. Those ads that are over there to the right of the page promising you free gadgets, free girls or fake farms. This one offered me a free audio book of an autobiography I was debating over. I resolved to deal with only one page of spam and clicked on it. Months later what I have found is if you really buy a lot of books, this could be a way to get more for a little less.
I’m talking about Audible.Com. Before you click away thinking I’m a hack for their company I’d like to throw two numbers at you: 15 and 3. The 15 is the current number of books in my library on Audible.com, 3 is the average price (in dollars) that I paid per book. That’s it right there. Read more
How smart are your Twitter followers? How do your followers stack up against the followers of other Twitter users out there? Fret and worry no longer, for now you can learn the answers to these important questions, using Stupid Fight. Stupid Fight is a website that allows you to input two Twitter usernames, and compare the "intelligence" of the followers of those users.
If you haven’t noticed already, my tongue is firmly in cheek while writing this post. Stupid Fight is a real site, though, so read on to learn a bit more about it, and how it measures the intelligence of a Twitter follower.
Do you want to be able to send faxes from home, without having to install another phone line, or share your current line? How would you like to be able to receive faxes anywhere that you have an internet connection? Or how about sending a fax via email? That is all possible now, using online fax services. The online fax service I’ve been using is RingCentral, an internet telephone service that also offers faxing.
Why RingCentral? After a couple of years of coping with the flakiness of fax over VOIP, I decided I wanted a solution that was more reliable. I also needed a solution that was simple, since I wouldn’t be the only one using it. RingCentral’s price was right, too, compared to other online fax services. Read on for my impressions of RingCental, and an explanation of how I I set up RingCentral’s fax service, so that I could easily use my Fujitsu ScanSnap S300 and my computer to send faxes. If you want to print faxes, you’ll also need a printer. Read more
