Desktop wiki like Zim will give you flexibility to experiment with various workflows and task representations. Once I started using Zim, it quickly replaced all TODOs, HOWTOs, bookmarks, contact lists, calendars, diaries/logs, and other memory tools. Since this is desktop wiki, there's no save button. You just jump to relevant wiki page via search and enter free-form text, usually a list item. New workflows and exceptions to existing workflows can be introduced on a whim. No need to wait for new features or adapt to somebody else's workflow like in specialized apps.
