I personally use http://hitask.com/ to keep myself on top of whatever I have to do, drag and drop plus the timer function really help me out.

I use Redmine with the Backlogs plugin and a lot of custom issue types.

The best way I've experienced is using a kanban board even for projects of one person. I use agilezen.com (free for 1-person projects) but there are a lot out there.

Get an open source, portable, future-proof, simple list: http://todotxt.com

If you need a bit more complexity, keeping with open source tools, http://www.redmine.org takes care of the job, easily. Plugins are a way to easily tweak it your way.

But falling for SaaS is easy, with http://trello.com, made by the guys at Fog Creek Software - which you might know already through the resounding name Joel Spolsky - is an awesome simple yet powerful tool, both for business and personal use.
