Task managers

Whenever I feel disorganized (which happens at regular intervals), I usually respond by trying to use a dedicated task manager. After a while, I find that it doesn’t deliver the results I expected - which probably says more about me than the software’s functionality.

I like ITSD, especially the clarity and simplicity of its design. But for me, these apps ultimately don’t work because:

- tasks, calendaring, email etc work well in an integrated environment. I presume it’s one of the reasons why PIMs were developed in the first place.
- project tasks are best outlined in a project management, not a separate to-do environment.

My 2c worth
