Dear God no, yet another pimped-up todo list? What does it do that the others don’t?
When pg used a todo list as an example app to challenge email, this was to be expected. A million todo apps everywhere. People have so little imagination.
+1 for delicious cheese.
Not that cheddar can't be a good cheese, but on the other side of the pond, cheddar is really the most basic cheese.
Out of all the todo apps I've tried. Every time I go back to writing shit on a white board. I've timed myself. IT takes me about 6 seconds to write something on a whiteboard. And about 10 to take a picture of it with my phone. Compare that to the 20+ it takes for me to pull out my phone, open an app, get into the list I want, and then type it out on a shitty little keyboard. Until you make a note taking app that take…
"Siri make me a reminder to delete all my to-do apps." "Ok, making your reminder."
"Ok, you're now a rain-dear caught in the headlights."
Sweet, it's completely useless! I can't dump a task from command line or vim. Can't script it to pull things to the calendar automatically. Can't send an email to put a task directly into it. Can't dump tasks to a text todo list to put at the top of the code or document im writing to remember what I need as I write. Will not use. And, even if those features show up, won't consider due to lack basic thought in initial…
"I don't get all the hate this post is receiving. ". The post itself feels like a lot of hatred behind him. Maybe it is getting the same medicine?

Hackers love to make todo lists. It's like some musicians' work remixing pop songs.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
He (PG) was talking about a new protocol that allow people to share tasks and control how many tasks they can have. Not a simple TODO list though. I don't think this is suppose to be an email killer. If they are doing this because of what PG said then I am afraid they might misunderstood him.
Apparently the author turned down a job offer to work on this full time: http://samsoff.es/posts/staying-strong I applaud the effort and entrepreneurial spirit and even the quality of the UI work. I'd question the judgement when there are so many to-do apps out there already.
Also, companies often evolve in different directions from where they start. Take Instagram for instance, they evolved from a social network and in the middle decided to take another path.

IMHO I think this phrase is part of the reason behind downvotes "Sweet, it's completely useless!" It is a strong statement and it is probably subjective. What it is useless for you might not be for someone else. You did fixed after... " is mostly useless to me." but I think was too late. "I don't get all the hate this post is receiving. ".
