Put Check Off on your download to-do list

Elaborate productivity tools are great but sometimes it's easy to get caught up tweaking them instead of actually being, you know, productive. Check Off is a handy little Mac-only tool that docks a simple check-off list in your menu bar and opens with just one click to remind you of all the tasks you need to complete.

As an added bonus, Check Off lists can also be downloaded to iPods that support the notes feature.
