So, I have been trying to keep a good to do list for a while now. I am big fan of GTD, but haven’t really found something that works really well for me. The three main things I need are - online, available anywhere, free, and simple. Well I was reading Subtraction today and found a really cool tool. Here is what Khoi Vinh has to say about it:

On the other hand, I’m enjoying Todoist quite a bit. As a relatively new product it’s far from perfect and it’s missing a few key features, to be sure. At the same time though, it’s a sparingly designed, lightweight online application that takes literally moments to understand and master. And its interface is not only pleasingly minimal but the design also smartly eschews the ‘Web 2.0 look.’

The tool is Todoist, and its awesome. I just started using it about 20 minutes ago, and I am really loving it. Maybe I will touch base in a couple weeks and let you know how its going. Well, go check it out. And let me know how it works for you, or if you use anything else to do the same thing.

One of my daily reads - Smashing Magazine. I love it. Tons of great info, and sweet links.

Href’s, they are everywhere, you cannot escape them. I have noticed a couple people talking about them lately, April put together some good links - Happy Hyperlinks & Link Love. Some good reading. One of my favorite things mentioned in the Coding Horror article is - Don’t radically alter link behavior. Classic. I really hate it when sites do that kind of stuff. April also touched on the use of ‘Click Here’. One of my other favs. I came across this article Does Telling Someone to “Click Here” Actually Matter? over at copyblogger. It is a great read. I get super annoyed with somebody telling me where to click, but I guess it works. BUT you will not find me using it.
