I use GMail’s “star” feature 
as a giant honking todo list, and I’m pleased to say that this weekend, I’m down to 54 starred items. “Inbox Zero” should be “Starred Zero” for me. 
I enjoy using Remember the Milk (in fact, I just downloaded the BlackBerry client, which is called MilkSync), but for email that takes time to process, starring can’t be beat.
