While building a Joomla site, have you ever stopped to write down notes of things to do before you launch the site or publish a certain article so you don't forget them?

There's an extension in the Joomla Extension Directory that lets you keep a "To Do" list in the Joomla backend. However, if it's more than you need or you just don't want to mess with another third party extension, there's a simple solution for keeping a basic "To Do" list in your Joomla backend without using anything more than built-in functionality.
