![]() If you’re looking for a task manager that you can dive right into it, then Remember the Milk is a better solution than Toodledo. One of the nice things about Remember the Milk is that, out of the box, it is simple and easy to use. On a complexity scale, Remember the Milk sits somewhere between Todoist and Toodledo. Both received great reviews around the web, and, important to me, both had an iPhone app. While Todoist is very elegant and easy to use, it lacked many of the features I needed, so I narrowed my search down to Remember the Milk and Toodledo. Eventually, after trial and error, I narrowed my search down to three: Remember the Milk, Toodledo, and Todoist. Recently, though, as I felt more and more disorganized, I decided that I needed a system, and set off to try out several task managers. I had taken a look at task managers in the past, and even had a mothballed Remember the Milk account, but nothing ever made me say “I need to keep using this.” My task management system consisted of sticky notes on my desk, emails to myself, and liberal use of the “Mark as Unread” button in my Gmail inbox. Why do you need a task manager, when you could just use your memory, email inbox, or paper? Or maybe you’re a Getting Things Done fanatic, and have tried Bobby’s excellent method of using Evernote as a GTD tool.

I’m talking about the kind of love I previously have only felt for Evernote and LastPass. ![]() As I put the two services to the test, I fell head over heels for one of them. But along the way, something strange happened. 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.
