Many had been requesting some kind of a feature to backup data from Activity Tracker, Todo List and My Moments gadgets. I did some research and found out that Google provides such a feature to backup, import or export the data.
I will provide you with instructions on how to do just that. This information relates to the following iGoogle gadgets that you may be using.
In your IGoogle homepage that hosts ScreeperZone gadgets, click on the small arrow provided on the tab and select “Edit this tab”
Now scroll down to the bottom of the page and you should see a section called “Troubleshooting” and another section called “Export / Import”
If you just wish to backup the gadgets, then click on “Backup”. The backup is saved in Google servers and you can recover the gadgets later by clicking on “Restore Now”. Unfortunately it saves only one snapshot of your Google settings. If you would like to save data at different times, then you will have to export your settings at different intervals. The next point discusses this.
If you wish to Export the data into a file and later restore it back from the file, then click on “Export” and save the file iGoogle-settings.xml locally. You can later restore your settings and data by uploading this file. To upload, click on “Browse” and select the file. You can then click on “Upload” to upload the settings.

Google provides a new feature where you can share your gadget with any of your friends and family. Everyone who happens to share the gadget will see the same information. The “To-do List with Google maps” iGoogle gadget leverages this feature and now you should be able to share your to-do list with everyone. Infact they will be able to edit it (if you provide permission) and everyone should be able to see the edit.
Following are the steps you follow to share your todo list gadget:
Click on the small arrow on the top of the To-Do List gadget and select “Share this gadget”
You should be presented with a dialog box where you can select the people you would like to share the gadget with or you can enter the email address. You will also need to specify if you would want them to just view your content or you would also let them edit it. On clicking “Send Invite”, your friends will be sent an email inviting them to add the gadget.
IMPORTANT: If your invitee happens to have his own personal To-Do List gadget, then he/she might have conflicts with the gadget you are sharing. To avoid such a conflict, it is advisable that your friend have the shared gadget on a separate tab.

Todo list provides a shortcut key to quickly add tasks.
This is what you do:
IE and Netscape/Mozilla users:
Whenever you open the iGoogle page. Just press Alt+Shift+A (from anywhere in the browser window) . Your cursor should automatically set the focus in the todo list task edit box. Now you can jot down the task right away without having to use your mouse to set the focus.

Leave your comments and share your experiences. I’m constantly looking to improve this gadget and your valuable feedback is really appreciated. I already have a list of “would like to have” features that many have requested. I will release a new version with those features.
