    Does any one use a desktop to-do list?

    I basically want to be able to have a few headings and a list under each.

    Any suggestions? My paper lists always end up a state and I like the idea of a reminder option for the likes of the customer I need to phone back at 4pm.

    Any tips welcome,

    Ta, G

    On one of our machines we’ve got a kind of "post it notes" on the Vista sidebar but we used to have a program which acted like a permanent sticky post it notes on the desktop where we could type in to do lists etc. It was a constant reminder of all the outstanding jobs and was very handy when you consider how much time you spend staring at the monitor.

    Ive just started using this add on for Windows Sidebar. Looks quite good from first impressions.

    Cheers guys I’ll have a look.

    I’ve found a few and find that they all miss something, a combination of some of what I’ve found would be perfect!

    My problem is the amount of lists I need. quotes/office work/site surveys/on hold/non essential/jobs to print…. it’s a nightmare!
