I currently use Shadowplan, which is a highly functional list manager. I have all my To Dos in one big list, organized into categories like health, work, finances, etc. with sub categories and finally my actual tasks. With RTM, it seems that I either have to create a bunch of lists (which might get confusing) or use one list for To Dos and use tags to simulate sub categories for my tasks. Are any others using RTM like this ? I played with RTM and was wondering if there’s a way to create a list tree? I currently use Shadowplan, which is a highly functional list manager.

You can set up folders, (contexts) and mail yourself the task/item. Once it hits your inbox you just move it to one of the folders. One bad thing, is once you have moved the task, you must go to that folder to update (sync) it. I like to keep the task unread so I can see how many tasks I have in each folder. Another nice thing about this is you have all of your lists available to you even when you do not have connectivity. Dave I use gmail for my lists on the iphone.

I love tadalists for its simplicity, just lists. I don't need all the other stuff. You think there is a way I can dumb it down for my use and is there a dashboard widget for RTM? Great post, d Brett,
