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.

There’s a better way to find software alternatives, though- head on over to AlternativeTo, and find other options as suggested by users.

Remember, back in the day, when email was one-dimensional? The good ol’ days when all you had to do was remember one contact list and deal with one inbox? Well, those days are long gone, buddy. Today, we are in a world of social media: connecting and sharing with the planet at large in as many ways and as quickly as possible.

We are also in a world of the high speed degradation of da englich langage, loosing it fastr den wat wuz expected — but that’s another post (ohh that pained me!).
