This is really stunning. I've just started using it as a shared list manager for me and my girlfriend to _collaboratively_ manage bills, tasks, and events, and to share ideas on things to do, movies to plan on watching, web pages to read, etc, etc. One day in and we're already loving it and benefiting from it a great deal.

We configured the extension in both our browsers to auto-synchronize to a shared webdav location, and since we both tend to have a browser open pretty much all day we see updates from each other in effectively real time. This is so effective that it has already replaced im, email, and phone for the various "don't forget" and "hey check this out" that come up throughout the day.

People try to sell me sometimes on the idea of using the whole "getting things done" magic fad to get on top of life stuff as well as work, and I looked into some tools for that, but for what we need this tool is like an antidote for all that -- simple, intuitive, effective and fun.

Forgive my glow, but I also must say, as a developer, I am very impressed by the elegance of the solution and the great effort and care that has obviously gone into this. Its a wonderful contribution to the community.

I've not got my wallet on me, but I've just added a reminder for us to donate in support of this fine work!
