Other programs I’ve tried: Toodledo, Wunderlist [discontinued], Microsoft Outlook
I have a GTD-ish to-do list. The way it looks in Trello is that there’s a “Work to-do list” Trello board, on which there are “lists” labeled “Today”, “This week”, “Waiting for...” “Done”, “Next few weeks”, “Not this month”, “Probably never”, etc., and on each “list” there are “cards” with individual items that I want to do. Trello allows each individual card to carry lots of useful information inside it, like links, attached google docs, text, checklists, deadlines. It’s very easy to browse and edit the cards and move them around, and has change-tracking for that. It’s cloud-hosted and has good smartphone apps. Their main market is for team collaboration I think, but it works great for one person. (I do use it to share a grocery list with my spouse.) It’s also free (including for private boards), good responsive searching (with an “archive” feature), no downtime, no bugs. The other to-do lists I’ve tried were missing some of these features and/or worse user experience.
