Between to-dos and calendars, there's Superminder


Somewhere between the vagueness of to-do lists and the complication of calendars, there's Superminder . It's a simple email and SMS reminder service that looks great and works will a minimum of fuss.

It's like iCal without the "cal."

Plans range from $4 for 15 SMS messages to $25 for 100, or you can always use Superminder via email for free.
