iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa
6/11/2019
Yes, deleted without warning. So far, for me, iMindMap 11 is still running -- and I will never choose the command in options to check for updates. The whole process stinks. The irony is that the...
I played with that thought a while back and decided no -- the DEVONthink sorter in the menubar is not a good substitute for Curiota. It failed in two respects:
1. The DEVONthink widget cannot be de...
Is anyone actually using Hook?
I realized this morning that it has been activating every time I boot but it never occurs to me to use it.
I think the developer is getting close to ending his be...
Forced Upgrades
6/11/2019
Bill, Bear is **only** $1.49/month -- for 50 cents you get a cute icon. Come on, who can resist :-)
My interest is piqued by nvUltra -- the long promised vaporware follow-on to nvAlt. Since Fletch...
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa
6/10/2019
OpenGenius has merged its two main products, iMindMap and DropTask, into a single subscription product, "Ayoa".
https://www.ayoa.com
Figuring out the pricing is a bit of a challenge. I had a DropTa...
(Yet another) interesting new app!
6/5/2019
Notenik is interesting, but you get what pay for. It's free. And it's very buggy. After a few attempts to do what the help file says it does, the app stopped letting me edit notes.
Deleted.
Stupid Devonthink tricks
6/3/2019
Since tags are just a type of group in DEVONthink, why not just use groups for your projects? When the database is "enabled for tagging", child groups and documents inherit the parent(s)' names as g...
Subs-Cutting
6/1/2019
TrueBill looks interesting. I wonder how they make their money? A portion of the savings?
Interesting. I've tried this out. It requires shifting back and forth from keyboard to mouse / trackpad, which is a drag on rapid entry or brainstorming. Dynamic view cannot be used to build an out...

Great deal on Leadertask today
5/24/2019
The so what is: I am not permitted to have software made in Russia on the same device as my client's data. Not my rule. The client's.

Great deal on Leadertask today
5/24/2019
Russian company? Seems to be, from reading the "About" page.
Noteplan 2.0 is here, on time
5/21/2019
Sorry to hear the problems others have had. The update to v2 was already on offer in the updates section of the Mac App Store and installed without issues. No update yet for iOS on offer in the iOS...
Keychain Access
5/16/2019
I've never had a problem or concern with 1Password vulnerability, but I suppose that's the same as saying I haven't yet been rear ended in traffic.
But I stay with 1Password for the practical reason ...
Subscription as investment
5/10/2019
The only subscription I have that regularly results in new features is Tinderbox. I think I started the annual payments during v5 and since then v6, v7, and v8, all with sophisticated features, have...
Subscription as investment
5/10/2019
Yes I have. I recently purchased the upgrade to DEVONthink 3 and paid for the highest level, even though I won't use all the features soon, because I've intensively used all prior versions without pa...
Coda.io?
5/9/2019
I've seen Coda.io mentioned here a few times -- not to be confused with Coda the web development app from Panic. Coda.io seems parallel to Notion,io in many ways, though a bit more focused on single...
The Checklist Manifesto
5/8/2019
You hit the nail on the head @NickG. There's a somewhat obscured point of view floating around inside this thread.

The Checklist Manifesto
5/8/2019
Meaning, I should off myself? That’s not on my checklist.

The Checklist Manifesto
5/8/2019
Interesting, if I understand @washere's interventions above, I seem to have thoroughly misunderstood the nature of my career's work. LOL. Oh, well.
The Checklist Manifesto
5/7/2019
I think of a checklist as a reproducible sequence of events or decisions (which are also events) that lead with certainty to an outcome specified in advance. ("You'll arrive at Mars if you start wit...
NotePlan 2.0
5/7/2019
Thanks for the heads up, Steve.
Interesting horse race developing now between NotePlan 2 and what I assume will be Agenda 6. NotePlan upping the ante with improved design and tweaks, and Agenda com...
DEVONthink 3 Public Beta Now Open
4/30/2019
Good analyses, @NickG and @Skywatcher.
Maybe the motive is simply "since any grifter can claim religiosity, we'll just have to say no to all of them". Makes economic sense.
Devonthink 3 Beta
4/29/2019
I've posted elsewhere that I've used the DEVONthink 3 alphas and betas (pre-public and public) for several years -- yes it was a very long development cycle. I have never lost any data in DEVONthin...
OPML question
4/28/2019
Andy, I've worked with many apps that attempt to do a good job of OPML export -- and frequently fail. It goes back to the root intent of Dave Winer's OPML "standard" (loosely conceived), which was t...
