Currently we have a relatively loosely-coupled modular system, which works
for our needs:

We have;

- an internal wiki for information-sharing,

- a TiddlyWiki clone for dynamically jotting down things and taking
non-linear notes.

- a  BugTracker.net server for keeping, priotizing and organizing bugs,
issues, tasks, enhancements, questions... etc.,

- a SVN repository for version control,

- a Whiteboard (not the web app thing; just plain old whiteboard; and a
boardmarker),

- a Dropbox account for syncronizing items withing home and office
environments (as a startup, unfortunately, we tend to bring work to home),

- ...and a TrueCrypt volume for sensitive extra-confidential data

I also use todo.txt and todo.sh for managing my personal to do lists.

...

Obviously this architecure will not suit for a more "corporate"
organization.
But for a dynamic, fast-moving startup, we found that it's a great
time-saver.
