There are soooo many web applications in this space it isn't even funny.
 Most of the open source ones, such as Project Pier or dotProject are built
on the MS Project model of GANNT and a sort of "waterfall" approach to
project planning, aka Enterprisey.
There are plenty of more "agile" products, most termed Web 2.0, to some
degree or another, take a look at something like Basecamp, LiquidPlanner,
Copper Project, Zoho Project (free accounts), or Clocking IT (open source
MIT License),

The only free/open source desktop apps I know of are GANNT Chart (Linux
only, I think), TaskJuggler, and OpenProj.

Take a look at http://delicious.com/tag/project+management+software or
http://www.whybasecampsux.org/#alternatives

I hope that helps!
