I recently decided to try out Google Tasks as my only task management system, and while I find some things about the interface great, it really isn't suited for someone like me who has multiple lists with lots of elements on each.<p>So, I whipped this together real fast and I can't imagine using Google Tasks without it anymore.<p>I realized you might want it too, so I put it on the web.<p>Enjoy :)
He uses frames to pull in tasks. That elementary part of HTML that's been in the spec for some time. I was shocked when loading up comments and I saw many people aghast at how he could have access to their tasks, especially when it's obvious to anyone with a basic knowledge of HTML that the site is using frames.
question, how did you grab the session and display tasks without authenticating through OAuth or whatever method google provides? Granted I'm logged into gmail but I'm somewhat goosed since it seems your third party domain can pull private data from my account without my explicit permission?
This is a great idea. A simple interface for my TODO's.
However I do not think iframing Google Tasks is the best idea, why not just create something similar your own?<p>Since you are iframing it I get this bug:

I want three list respectivly "Done", "Today" and "Someday".
However as I change one, the others change too.<p>I'm running Chrome 11 dev
This is fantastic. Since you're really just framing google code, I take it that there is no way that you can inject code into the frames and enhance them somehow?
Hi cmikec, is you the author of the site?<p>Google does not seem to provide any API for Gtask(1), which system did you use? scraping? By time seeking a way to integrate Gtask in my app.<p>(1) The famous issue 987 <a href="http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=987" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=987</a>
Just added a killer feature many people were asking for that I wasn't sure was possible given the iframe approach. In the latest Chrome and Firefox 4 (but apparently not Firefox 3.6), gtasker.com now saves your selections for which lists appear in each cell. Set up your dashboard once, use it forever. :)
To any other potential task hackers, currently there is no API, but google announced they are building one soon.<p><a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/top-tasks-for-google-tasks.html" rel="nofollow">http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/top-tasks-for-google-t...</a>
This is great! Simple, Straight forward and easy to use. A nice compliment to the the desktop utility (HTML5) at <a href="http://workola.com" rel="nofollow">http://workola.com</a>. I'll add this link to my desktop.
I know this is a more reputable community than the typical site, but I would be wary of clicking through these links in non-incognito/private mode... it's amazing how trusting people are.
Very cool and an improvement, but I still find Google Tasks too limited. I'll stick with <a href="http://todoist.com" rel="nofollow">http://todoist.com</a>
very cool, thanks! I was using wunderlist until I switched to android, I still feel a need to build a native desktop app for some reason, but this works.
