The Best To-Do List in the Universe

I love the idea of online to-do lists but readily admit that the idea of to-do lists almost always exceeds the reality of online to-do lists. With the plethora of technology available to us today it’s almost hard to imagine that a pencil and a scrap of paper still make a more effective task list.
Nonetheless I still try out practically every service I find in the hope that something will click.
When I came across Remember the Milk I almost laughed out loud at the title, but if I were to laugh today it would be a laugh of joy because this is an impressive service that not only is effective but also fun to use.
Aside from a really nicely designed UI that is efficient in use, in other words the feature layout encourages you to take full advantage of the service, there are some really clever integrations with other services, like adding tasks via Twitter and mapping tasks on a Google map (okay, that’s probably not so clever anymore but it’s still useful). One wish list (now there’s an idea for a new service) would be integration with Google Contacts.
Also, the service takes advantage of Google Gears to enable an offline mode.
