I love Remember the Milk! Also, please have look at the app KanbanTool (http://kanbantool.com/). It is online – it doesn’t matter that kind of operating system you have. You simply create cards with tasks and move them across the board. You share tasks with your team and add attachments. It seems nice and useful. Do you know any other tool like that so I could make a comparison? Regards,
