Even better for developers: Todo.txt http://todotxt.com/ Free, open, plain text, with lots of optional tools for the command line and also mobile. And for more power, emacs org mode is amazing.
| Free Not completely. The associated Android app I just bought is $2. Though it's still not much.

I understand the argument against editing a file in /etc for something only one user is concerned about, but I've been the sole user of every computer I've had, so this doesn't matter to me. I think that's the case for a lot of people. The other arguments seem to be preference. Some people work better with paper.

the obvious downside to the motd method is length of todo list... It might be good for motivational messages but not for actual todo lists.
Ooooh, OK this was genius. Sold. I hope this helps though.
