A nice concept, and the collaboration aspect is great. But this won't get me away from the task management desktop apps I am used to.
The plugin has no concept of projects as far as I can tell, which could be by simply tagging in gmail. As it is, I can simply drag the gmail url to my current desktop application icon which creates a task.
Perhaps for someone whose only work related tasks come in through gmail, this would be an improvement over just tagging an email.
Even if it were my case, I cannot see myself relying this app. I moved away from Things to The Hit List because it had VIM-like keyboard controls, and am used to being able to move around in gmail with the keyboard as well. As far as I can tell, there are no keyboard controls for this plugin.
