Not sure what to make of this app/company -- the pitch is very generic and doesn't really differentiate the app from any of the zillions of to-do apps and systems, some of which are also very slick and minimalist. The company is a year old, has raised $1M, and has 11 people. The app is Android-only right now, so I can't try it out.

If you're looking for something to try out, check out Wunderlist. It works on Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android. Syncs among all the platforms. The website features a nice overview (http://www.6wunderkinder.com/wunderlist/ http://www.6wunderkinder.com/wunderlist/). My wife is a bit of a to-do list snob, and she likes the way it works for her. Best of all, no waiting for a beta.

I got the same feeling. What differentiates Any.DO from Astrid, Google Tasks, Remember the Milk, org-mode, Taskwarrior or any of the thousands of other to-do applications/systems out there?

> has raised $1M, and has 11 people. If anyone doubts that we're in a bubble, ruminate on the above numbers for a second. * There are a bazillion to-do lists apps, of varying colors and prettiness and integration with calendars. * The barriers to entry are zero. Maybe less than zero, since you can raise money to do this sort of thing. * The pitch has to be something like "The total available market is equal to the number of cell phones. Just imagine the revenue from 1% of that TAM!"

  I have met with the founder of AnyDO, and I personally heard their pitch. I don't know if it is public yet, so I will refrain from repeating it here. But I can say that a TODO app is only the beginning/stepping stone. They did not raise their money based on a TODO task list.

    s/TODO/GTD/g will not change the above conclusion.

      hey all, My name is Omer Perchik and I'm one of the co-founders of Any.DO. As mentioned above, Any.DO is not yet another to do list, it's more, much more. You all are invited to checkout my interview with Robert Scoble to get a hint of what technology we're building on the back-end : https://plus.google.com/111091089527727420853/posts/4sSNuhy87U7 https://plus.google.com/111091089527727420853/posts/4sSNuhy8...

Considering their about page was taken from somewhere else as well, not sure how much originality they are capable of achieving. http://www.any.do/about http://www.any.do/about
