Gmail now does tasks

If you run gmail in safari (hey - threaded email, how radical!) you can use the list manager that comes with it all nicely formatted for iPhone/mobile.

Just named lists with a hierarchical tasks and the ability to add some detail if you want.

But - when you're not on your iPhone but sat at your desk - there's the list again.

I think web-based is the way to go, personally. I would probably switch to a more sophisticated web-based task manager (even *shock* pay for it) but the google one does enough.

I still have What Tasks installed and I think it's pretty good, but having the same list on every platform wins every time, even if it isn't quite what I want.
