I think app raised a good point. Being able to message it one's tasks through msn would be even better :D

brotherS:
Now what would be perfect would be if you could add it to your contact list on msn/aim/yahoo/etc and just message it and it message you back your reminders at same screen name you used without the need to actually sign up.

Being able to add reminders by using AIM/ICQ/etc. sounds like a great idea! :up:

Doing that without signing up probably wouldn't be so good:
- you can't micro-manage your reminders online then (changing due dates/times, texts, labels, ...)
- the server would need to accept everything from any IM address, probably making RTM (more) vulnerable to attacks

brotherS:
How many other DC users use this great service? I still love it! :-*

I'd like to add RtM has a very nice and efficient mobile interface (something like mobile.rememberthemilk.com).  I find this web site/service invaluable to keep track of small tasks and checklists.

I like the way you can "twist" it to better suit your need.  For instance, I name every added task as follows :
"061228-check donationcoder for answer to my post" for a task entered today.

Then I don't have to play with priorities/due dates to have task sorted out chronologically.

This is particularly useful when I order something from the WEB.  I add a new task on my "e-Commerce" list, which looks like : "061226-Amazon.com ; latest CD from Suzanne Vega".  When I receive the CD, I mark the task done.  I sometimes use the Note feature to keep a log of events regarding this order, such as "order is shipped on ...".

Several months ago I tried out a site like this. I can't remember if it was RtM or not, but I never got the scheduled e-mail and my Spam box has been filling up rather fast since around then.
