> Stephen D.: Two features are particularly important for todo management: an outline editor to decompose projects into manageable tasks and a list manager for those manageable lists of tasks.
How about the third step of actually placing some of those tasks into a time plan? I find that there is a significant limitation of offerings in this area, in terms of application integration. Everything seems to point to Outlook as the final receptacle for planned tasks. I actually installed it because it was a requirement for Datelens, which I find absolutely brilliant.
The only other interesting offering I’ve found is Agenda At Once, which combines a hierarchical task list with a PIM. However, even this is too simplistic for complex projects. Ideally, I’d like to be able to drag-and-drop anything, i.e. files, contacts, URLs or tasks, to my calendar, and automatically create an entry/shortcut.
