2. WorkFlowy

You're one of those "creative" types who's got a zillion projects on the go. Your to-do lists typically take up notebooks and include lots of tangental notes. WorkFlowy lets you keep tabs on all your projects with collapsible sections that you can open and close for easy viewing. When you finally complete a project, your notes are saved for permanent retrieval, so you can revisit them at any time.
