I am going to check out the integration with Gmail. I am trying Thunderbird with RTM (very limited) on my office computer. I have found the m.rememberthemilk.com to be very responsive on my mobile phone. Keep Learning and Sharing, chris Thanks Kate. I am going to check out the integration with Gmail.

Have to try that out based on your recommendation. The integration with Google maps would be great for planning to-do's while traveling or on a business trip (or just a day with lots of meetings around town). Thanks for letting us know about this.

I'll try to go back to Google Calendar and will definitely check out GoPingMe - thanks for the suggestions! @Durff - I like knowing that I’m at least TRYING to get things done, even if I too ignore tasks a bit too often!

Two more weapons in my organizational arsenal: Google Calendar: an easy to use, clean, white calendar with drag & drop interface. We used to keep a monthly calendar in our kitchen with all our dr's appointments, days off school, etc. Now EVERYTHING goes on our family Google Calendar. Even my technophobic wife has learned to use it well. :-) GoPingMe.com: Get reminders via SMS, Twitter DM, or email! Type a short (140 character) message into the box, set a date and time to be reminded, and forget about it. I use this for minor tasks that don't really warrant a spot on my RTM list, or things I have to do when I'm not near a computer (e.g., get gas on the way home, stop at ATM, etc.). I've tried three or four SMS reminder services, but GoPingMe is the ONLY one I've tried that consistently sends the reminders at the assigned time - other services frequently send reminders as much as an hour early or an hour late - not much use, that.

I will try Remember the Milk though. It sounds like an extra "alarm clock." My outlook calendar works pretty well for me since I check my email all of the time. I will try Remember the Milk though.
