You need a proper logo. I appreciate that you are trying to be cool and ultra-minimalistic, but a simple logo would add maybe 5-10k to the page... the plain text logo just looks amateurish.

Edit: I would suggest a logo contest here, but there will need to be a prize 😉

Why? Task listing is probably the thing I do most during the day. Sometimes, I'm away from my computer, and other times, I'm away from my phone.

I can see being away from your computer, but you shouldn't ever be away from your cell phone unless you're involved in something that would damage your phone or where your phone would cause a safety problem.

Work smarter, not harder.

Maybe, but if you need multiple devices just for a to-do list, you're doing it wrong.

Disagree.

And you don't NEED more than one device, but for me, allowing management from multiple devices is an absolute must.

I need to be able to check my todo list from my phone AND pc.
 
I tried the same test, and it only created it once for me:

test one

test two

What email client are you using/email address?

And for the people doing HTML as list items, I haven't done htmlentities() yet, because I haven't launched this to the public. But I guess I'll do that now.

Thanks for the suggestion. We have a designer on our team who could probably do something. If you have any suggestions, feel free to suggest.

htmlentities() should be added. So cross site scripting vulns should be minimal at this point, but I'll have to do more auditing later. If anyone finds one, please let me know.
 
Looking good. I think the cake is done, time to add some icing?

Options that could be added to settings:
Confirm delete (or offer an undo)
custom colours (this is going to be way easier than trying to make everyone happy with a single colour scheme)

Possible Formatting Issues:
indent the "updated x...." a little bit, to give distinction to the actual list items
tighten up the vertical spacing a bit - i see a lot of empty pixels in the list items (and the header too)


PS - Am I supposed to be getting responses back when I send things to send@yiglet? They're kinda unnecessarily filling up my inbox..

What I'm wondering, is why wouldn't you just keep this stuff on your phone only? The phone's portable, and always with you, no?

I would prefer to use my PC if I'm already in front of it.

If I have a list of 5 things to add or edit I would rather not use my phone, if possible.

You're right though - I could do this JUST on my phone, but it's easier to manage on my PC.

It isn't backed up then. And it isn't easily sharable.

Beginning this weekend, you'll be able to send and share lists with others. It'll be very simple, but allow others to add things to your list, etc.

Thanks for the suggestions. Can you explain the vertical spacing issue a little more?

When you email stuff to send@yiglet, it should send your updated list back to you. This was a suggestion by another member. If it isn't something you like, then perhaps its time to make it an option?

Gotcha. My life isn't that complicated. I keep everything in my head. I'm not the target audience for this application :^)
