Official Gmail Blog: Tasks: Paper vs. iPhone - http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2009...
I have been a post-it note user for years, and Tasks on the iPhone finally got me to switch. It has come in really handy for shopping lists and notes to myself about things I need to discuss with people when I see them. - Keith Coleman
Who wrote this blog post btw (I mean really wrote it) -- I agree it was quite good - Carl Sjogreen

You should write an iPhone app that does voice recording and then sends it off to google for voice2text and immediately adds it to the task list. I usually think of tasks while driving, and it's difficult to type on the iPhone without bumping into the other cars. - Paul Buchheit
'"Many people use their email inbox to store notes, reminders, or to do lists. Denote makes this simple and easy on the iPhone and iPod Touch. Use Denote to capture a thought that is keeping you awake or save a brilliant brainstorm before it is forgotten. By getting ideas out of your mind and into your inbox as quickly as possible, Denote frees your attention back to the moment at hand. - Jonathan Le Plastrier "“Denote for the iPhone which simplifies the process of sending yourself notes by email is now available. http://littleitch.com/denote/” - Michael Muller
@paul that would be called jott :) - Christian Burns
I tried jott a long time ago. Making a phone call was just too slow. April tried their iPhone app and had some kind of problem with it, so I never bothered. Being integrated with Gmail is kind of a big plus too. - Paul Buchheit
@Paul That was my first feature request when I first got wind of Tasks. :) I don't think I'm allowed to post the teams response. - EricaJoy
I like webnotes for putting marking websites i want to return to again and again. - Lorraine Ball
