I am looking for a really basic developer task/todo app or system. Are there any good ones out there? What are you using? All I need is a good overview and being able to add time and priority to my tasks.

I've found that a pen and dedicated project notebook works best for me. I maintain a priority by putting keeping a page for each priority level. If something changes priority I cross it off and move it to the new priority.

Time could be tracked with a written time estimate.

I've done the same thing using Emacs ORG mode, or a folder of .txt files, depending on how complex my project gets.
