Hi, thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it.

You can create as many task lists as you like, but you're right in the sense that you'll have to remember each URL you create. I have a dashboard feature in development to organise task lists you've viewed/edited/created, and I'm currently deciding whether or not that should be a paid feature.

I've changed the footer as per your advice.

That's fair enough, I understand that for generic use there are better free apps out there to use. I'm really trying to appeal to quite a specific use case, which I believe is quite common in multi-office environments. It may be quite ironic that I still use RTM in parallel for task management, as I myself do not fit in the target market for my own product!

I do know of some business who already happily pay for services like this, but you and I probably wouldn't find it as valuable.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it.

2 and 3 are on my list, 1 seems like a good idea, I love the way the revision system works on Etherpad (curently visible on http://typewith.me), but unfortunately I couldn't develop something that sophisticated so quickly. Everything is saved in real-time, are you referring to viewing old revisions?

Your case study is the exact one I'm trying to address! It's relieving to hear that someone else is familiar with this problem as well, as it's been apparent in every office I've worked in, especially when a team is spread across countries.

I'm aware that it might seem like I'm trying to compete with RTM and Google Docs, but what I am really aiming to do is find the people who might make make better use of an application more tailored to this problem.

Cheers

Hi troels. To be honest I often do this to make the UI more consistent and better looking for Windows users. I'm aware that some users may find this has quite the opposit eeffect, so I'll bear your feedback in mind and get some more opinions.

Thanks

Hi grep. Thanks for the feedback. I've used CodeIgniter and jQuery.

Sorry, just fixed this. I forgot to push to code live that took into account Twitter being completely unreliable!
