- Shows up on my computers and my android phone
- The Android app must be convenient
- Either there needs to be a really convenient desktop application, or it has to integrate into a web site I already use, such as the iGoogle homepage
- I shouldn't have to develop it myself
- Streamlined synchronization. I shouldn't have to manually sync it all the time.
- Features preserved in synchronization. For example, if on my phone a todo item
- Preferably everything goes over SSL
- Automatically sorts tasks by priority
- I started with mnote on my phone. This didn't get along with my desktop very easily.
- I thought about just keeping a svn repository with a flat text file and adding a hook to do sorting by the first item on the list. Unfortunately, this is a lot of work and doesn't play nicely with the phone
- I thought a lot about setting up my own server with an Apache Thrift service. Too much work.
- I looked at several web services, but none of them seemed to really do the trick.
- I tried astrid tasks, but the syncing wasn't very pretty with google tasks or producteev. Producteev also seemed way overkill.
- Then I tried Remember The Milk... WIN!
I'm not totally sure that everything is SSL'ed. I know that when I work directly with the webapplication it is, but I don't think it is from the iGoogle page or the android app, but I have yet to actually confirm or deny this.
