Today I downloaded this really cool program called Instiki.
http://instiki.org/show/HomePage It's a little wiki that is only on your computer, so right now I've started using it for my To Do Lists, to keep recipes in, and to backup my bookmarks in case Firefox corrupts them again. So far it's worked out really well. For example, sometime today I need to pack for my trip to Michigan so I put that on my to do list. Then I made it a WikiWord and put my list of things to pack in the next page. Which I thought was pretty useful.
