Tickle
For me the key thing is the tickle file. I run two of these - one at work and one at home.
All my tasks are in the tickle file. Every day I have a new set to look at. I either do them or refile them.
At work I need to be able to reference them so I also keep a task list in Outlook with the dates so I can find a particular file when I need to.
At home I let the tickle file do all the work.
One of the things that I don't do is the regular review. This is something I don't have the discipline to schedule, so I have a project called review. This comes up every couple of days and I do a bit and leave it. I think that having the discipline to do a review is more efficient. I don't, so I think I am better off living with that and using my work around.
