Nozbe is, succinctly, a Getting Things Done (GTD) implementation. The service synchronizes with Evernote, Dropbox and Google Calendar. It has all the core functionality you really need and restrains itself from being too complicated. You can synchronize between a PC or Mac application, an in-browser app, and iPhone and iPad and Android apps.
It’s not free but it’s very reasonable for what you get. I’ve been using it for a while, after a long series or attempting other solutions, and I strongly advocate it for anybody looking for an integrated “getting organized” solution.

People interested in Nozbe may want to also investigate Conqu, a similar app but with different design trade-offs. Various things that I find annoying or broken in Nozbe are not that way in Conqu, and vice versa, and the two have slightly different feature sets and UIs. (Notably: Conqu’s app works almost exactly the same on all platforms (given a large enough screen), vs. Nozbe’s many slightly different apps.)
Conqu is also cheaper on an individual basis, and can be used for free in an unlimited fashion on any single device: you pay only if you want to be able to sync between devices and email yourself tasks.
Update: I have now largely abandoned ToodleDo in favor of Workflowy (also recommended here), and use it pretty much like Paul Christiano does (as described in My Workflow).

I tried Nozbe and I liked it. I also tried ToodleDo, and I liked it even more. These are probably the top two to-do list apps our there.
