Work Flowy - The best list app and website I've found. Best of all it's free!

Just simple dot point lists that you can expand or collapse.

I find it great for organising/planning.

I LOVE this!  Thanks for the suggestion!! 

In my job, I constantly have a hundred things to do, but it's different things all the time, with several big cyclical events and projects.  I've tried other organizers and systems, but I end up with 87 post-it note lists that get shuffled, lost, and then tossed out once i find them again and they're outdated.  Workflowy is the simple, real-time, highly editable organization tool I never knew I needed.  I've been on it for 5 minutes and already have so much organized!

It's appears to be exactly what I've been looking for - Thank you! I'm going to try it out.

Later...I am loving workflowy. It would be better with date/time functions, but seems to be an excellent tool.

Glad you both like it :)

I started using Workflowy about 12 months ago, firstly to help with our house renovation project management, but more recently for everything (housework, meal planning and grocery shopping, triathlon training, study...) and I love it. It's a game changer for me. :)

Is there offline access? It won't be much use to me if there isn't. I found a review at Slate that says its online only, but the review is several years old.

Just downloaded app and logged in on 3 devices.  Looks good, but the secret will be if something keeps me coming back.  Will try to link it with IFFT or at least set reminders to Google Mail so I can IFFT that way.

I've been using it for a while now and I love it -- fantastic for info you need to refer back to and for brain dumps and for keeping a bunch of different lists.

I ran up against the limits of the free version pretty quickly so I pay (or rather work pays) $49/year which seems totally reasonable to me.

ETA: Trello is another fantastic free tool as well. Similar idea to workflowy but a little more infrastructure if you need it.

Tried it out, and while it's overkill for what I need, so I won't be using it, I like it quite a bit.  Good UI (both pretty and useful).  Well designed overall.

Worth checking out the demo, here: https://workflowy.com/demo/embed/

Work Flowy is cool, but I recently started using Google Keep and find it really handy.
It works better with my phone and I can get to it easily on the desktop too. Lots of fun features.
I hope they don't discontinue it! Google seems to have a way of just disappearing their apps...

Yeah.  And given that they literally had a product that did exactly that, that they ran from 2006-2012, and then shut down (Google Notebook), I wouldn't trust Google Keep to continue to exist.

Evernote or OneNote both seem more likely to exist in a decade than Google Keep, IMO.
