To Do Lists

Good morning! A brand new week and a fresh to-do list.

Are you a lists person? If yes, do you like writing them on paper or typing them on a digital device? I personally like a mix of both. For the day's to-do's I like writing things out in my Kate Spade planner {seen above} -it appeals to my tactile sense :) For long term to-do's I use the To Do List gadget on iGoogle and use multiple lists to separate out tasks by category. I love it's simplicity and ease of use, and have been using it for a while now. The only con for me is not being able to access it easily from my smartphone.

I'm currently trying out Springpad {which has an accompanying android and iphone app} to see if that might be a better alternative. So far, I like that I can create different notebooks (for separating things into categories: Personal, Business, etc.) and that I can access it from both my computer and through the phone app. What I don't like though is that I can't {or at least haven't figured out how to} sort tasks by high, medium or low priority. Have you tried it? What's your preferred method of managing your lists?
