Backpack

Organization tools has been a huge challenge for me - I’ve tried a variety of them, and found myself fighting their design and structure rather than just using it.

Backpack, like the other Web-based applications from 37 Signals, has a minimalistic UI, designed to deliver just what it needs to only. At first, I found it all a bit too simplistic, but that was probably because I’ve been exposed to bloated Web applications so much. Give Backpack and their other tools a try, giving yourself enough time to appreciate applications that do things differently from the bulk out there.
