Is it one of these?:

https://splendidbacon.com it is!
Now I don't feel so bad for being utterly unable to recall the name.
But at least it was charcoal and last fall (Monday, 18 October 2010).
(Better Means looks like an intriguing concept for certain projects -- thanks for the pointer.)

Maybe Flow.io ?
Almost!
I see I commented in that thread, and I recall looking at a number of "kanban" style web apps. If I can't find the one I'm looking for, one of these may be able to be adapted, so thank you very much for finding that.
The one with the charcoal background was even simpler, and I think it was shown here later in the year, late summer or fall.

I'm not sure it will help, but it's a whole lot better than me guessing... The following is the query used to find flow.io. There's (about) 59 matches.

Thanks for reminding about site:, I'm reviewing all the threads mentioning kanban in case it's one of those.
If I do find it, I will update this thread.

The charcoal background made me think of Geckoboard (http://www.geckoboard.com/), but that's more of a dashboard metrics visualizer than a task list.
The feel was like that, but with generous whitespace (blackspace?) and room for just a handful of items, useful for glanceable overall prioritization.
Thanks for the reminder on Geckoboard, another project can make good use of it.

The idea was a single page a team could glance at to see what the current tasks or priorities are. There may also have been an activity stream for individuals' updates, though I don't recall for sure.
This was not a full project collaboration tool like http://www.nozbe.com, and far simpler than even https://taskant.com/.
It was more like a pinboard of note cards of what a team should be working on.
The minimum viable product aspect and black background stuck with me, but I can't recall the name or even search terms to look for it.
Any ideas what web app I'm thinking of?
