I would like to use and customize this kind of editable tag cloud in my own application. Does anybody know if there is a open source widget available that does something similar to this? Thanks in advance and best regards, Robert I found this mixture of a pure display tag cloud and editing feature just a perfect match.

One of our goals is to overcome exactly this problem. While we do provide features like priority, tagging, and due dates, it's also easy just to "jot things down." I leave Zirrus up on my computer so that whenever I think of things to do it's a simple matter of clicking New Task (or Ctrl-T), typing the task, and hitting Enter.

Fancy to-do lists are neat and all and utilize great concepts, but I always end up spending a lot of time on setup and organization with the new features and then don't come back to the list because of that...personally. At work I always end up going back to Outlook. At home I typically use keep a text document on my desktop and use Notepad. However, when it comes to <strong>collaborative</strong> to-do lists, I think apps like Zirrus, Tada, etc. are quite handy and keep people on a level playing field. But, whatever works...
