So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

I agree! Backpack is a great tool, and I use it to send reminders to myself via SMS all the time. The one thing that stops me from using it as my main to-do list is that it doesn't let you create hierarchical to-do lists. You can reorder items in a list, but you can't prioritize them.

I agree. Then again, there is always some critical flaw in every tool in my arsenal, so I've given up searching for the holy grail of info management and am constantly piecing together a patchwork quilt of GTD/productivity hacks.
I haven't found a to-do list yet that can handle flexible enough prioritization for my shifting needs. I've lately been dreaming about a digg-style to-do list where I could just click a plus sign to bump something up in priority, and things would float to the top more organically.

Hey...
I've developed my own to-do list site: http://www.tdoos.com
It's somewhat similar to 37Signal's (the makers of Backpack) Ta-da lists, but it's completely free. It's certainly not a competitor to Backpack, but for quick to-do lists I think it's pretty good.
FYI: I'm not trying to spam the comments, I just thought this was somewhat relevant to the comments posted so far. :)
