To-do lists

[The Ironist]

We have a small team of 5 people in our office and each person needs to manage different things. Each of us have our own way of keeping track of things we need to do but my boss has asked me to look into something that can manage all of our to-do lists.

Basically she wants something that we can all access, set each other things to do which are assigned to dates we need to do them by, then can tick off things we've done.

The obvious one is tasks in Outlook but is there a way to share it so we all have access to the same one rather than just assigning tasks by email? Is this the best program?

Any suggestions?

Excel... All have your own section.

Like a workload planner?

a forum??? everyone can log into it, you or your boss could lock threads when that task are completed etc, and you would also have a record of when the task was last done etc... Could be viewed easily by every member of the team.

I'd have an Excel document sat remotely on a web server.
Then everyone can access it from their own PC.

Top of my to-do list is practice halo...

Considered excel but it's a bit basic. Need something can easily organise into days with everything that needs to be done by each person that day.

I came across a program called taskbin which looked perfect but then realised the cost of it.
