Topic: Anyone working on a todo list widget?

One thing that I think would be awesome is a widget that was tied in to one of the online todo list sites.

There are several sites out there that help you with todo lists. The best ones that I've come across are Remember the Milk and Toodledo.

What I'm thinking of is a widget that displays my todo list from one of the above sites and lets me check off items as I complete them. I'm not a flash or ActionScript programmer or I might try to whip one up myself. I'd be willing to help design and test one though.

Is anyone working on something like that?

Thanks.

Remember the Milk has RSS support:

The Chumby RSS reader should work to at least view your todos.

Yes. I just tried it out and it does work to view my todos. The 2 main issues with viewing my todos that way are (1) each todo is listed on a separate screen and (2) I can't check todos off as I complete them.

I will probably use the RSS reader, because being able to view my todos is better than nothing.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Re: Anyone working on a todo list widget?

I am happy to look into using the Remember the milk API to get a widget happening. I am posting a reply on the other thread ( http://forum.chumby.com/viewtopic.php?id=1583 ) on the same subject to ask for people's desired functionality for a v1 offering in the widget etc.

Cheers,
