Preventing the "crash and burn"


I have a love/hate relationship with my computer. Just when I get it set up the way I like it, it goes wacky. I've had three laptops in 5 years. I may need a new one again, but instead I'm doing my best to make do and part of that is to move things to the web instead of just my computer.

My handwriting sucks, so I type most everything including my "To Do Lists". I have found a couple of websites that you can use to manage your important information. The key for me was the ability to customize with the information I wanted, along with the ability to print a paper copy, and it had to be priced right. (That means free!) Here's what I found:

Popular, but not quite what I need.

http://www.tadalist.com/
Too simple, not enough features.

http://todoist.com/
This might be the one I end up using. But there is some learning to needs to be done and I don't want to learn another program right now.

This is what I decided on for now. I can create the lists that I want, access them anywhere, print as I want. This is as close to what I am used to having except it is stored on line instead of my computer.

Any comments or suggesttions would be welcomed.
