Personal organizer software

[Scott_Arm]

Anyone able to recommend some good software for organizing tasks at work? I'd prefer something free. My job requires me to juggle a lot of different tasks at work. I may have up to fifty small tasks going at one time. I'd like to be able to enter them into some kind of organizer and be able to write notes and updates for each one individually. Being able to set due dates and timelines for each one would be very helpful. Outlook has a Tasks function, and I used it for a short period of time, but I didn't like it.

it might be worth checking Mozilla Sunbird. On the bottom of its wikipedia page I found that list of personal information managers. Have "fun".

There is a relativly stable open source todo list program on Codeproject:

Haven't used it much yet my self though, so don't know if it fits your requirements.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check them out.

While it has no timeline or alerts I like Evernote for keeping track of tasks and notes. The free version has all the functionality most people need. Pay features are mostly for tablet PC users.

Yeah, I just don't like the task interface, for whatever reason. I think I'll revisit it, but I used it for a while back and found it clunky. Can't remember the exact reason it didn't fit my needs.
