I have used Remember the Milk for the last three years. I find that being able to collect 100% of what I need to do is the most important thing for me. Since I can access RTM from my desktop, mobile, or even email (maybe even text msg?) I am almost always able to get the task into it from anywhere.

Once the tasks are in the system, I prefer something computer based so I can organize it quickly over paper based. I know a lot of the tasks in the system are not things I'm going to get around to soon, but I'd rather dump them onto a list and stop thinking about them than have it pop up in my head over and over.

I do my weekly reviews on friday and monday. I find it helps to do more frequent, but smaller reviews.

I don't really use any of the advanced features of RTM though (tags, smart search etc).
