For those of you house restoration geeks who are also computer geeks. (You know you are...Hint ....you are reading a blog right now.)

Zoho is an online documents package similar to google docs, but offering a useful project management software. The free version allows only one project.

Here is how I use it:

1. Create milestones for the different sections of my house. Example: Kitchen to be finished by August 24.

2. Add tasks with their own to do dates to the milestone list: Cabinet doors.

3. Add sub tasks to the the task.: Stain, Hang, Install Hardware.

You can view all of your tasks on a calendar, set up the program to email you when tasks are overdue, and view your to-do's anywhere you have web access.

The pay version allows you to have multiple users. Then you can assign others tasks. If you are restoring a bungalow you are probably a control freak and won't need this feature. Just walk that lonely road.
