An alternative to Circus Ponies Notebook
2/15/2016
Curio is definitely #1 on my list. When CPN had serious problems with its iOS app a few years ago, I migrated my work to Curio -- because Curio's integration with Evernote was, at the time, the most ...
BitWriter (nvALT redux)
2/13/2016
Looks like the long promised rewrite of nvALT (itself a Notational Velocity clone for OS X) is going to be called BitWriter

2/12/2016
Curiota recently reached version 2, on the Mac App Store. The new features include (per release notes):
New library view
Browse your files and notes.
Edit your notes.
Create custom user collections,...
local notebooks in Evernote
2/11/2016
I've never used local notebooks with Evernote.
But, why would anyone want to put private personal info into Evernote anyway -- local, or in any other manner?
I don't have this -- but the Pro version touts that it includes "Manual all lists backup (OPML format)" and "Dropbox integration" -- though there's a big difference between backup and usefulness.
M...
Bill -- Checkvist is designed to do some / all of what I think you're doing.
According to news at Apple Insider and elsewhere, Apple's Notes app will support importing .enex files exported from Evernote. This in the upcoming 10.11.4 release of OS X, reportedly.

Day One 2 available on Thursday
2/4/2016
In 2012 Day One sold for $9.99. (Today, Day One Classic sells for $9.99.) I'll pay for the $20 "upgrade" to avoid the $39.99 and avoid a probable end-of-life on Day One Classic. I don't mind payi...
Day One 2 available on Thursday
2/3/2016
Thanks for the update Steve.
I was wondering why the App Store was calling the existing app "Day One Classic". The blog entry also has "Classic ... will continue to be maintained as needed", which ...
Curious Evernote testing qualifier
1/28/2016
It turned out their form fails the first time it's submitted, so I answer the question one way and then the other way. Perhaps now, In the eyes of Evernote, I am both older and younger than 35, but n...
Curious Evernote testing qualifier
1/28/2016
I received an invitation from Evernote to beta test something called "Evernote Labs". Why not, I thought. The sign up sheet asks for us to choose an option: "I am younger than 35" or "I am older tha...
MindNode as outliner
1/27/2016
Thanks for the tip. I tried the beta today (1.5.6). It doesn't operate correctly on OS X 10.11 -- but no one said it would, either. There is a "outline" option in the view settings but it appears t...
MindNode as outliner
1/27/2016
Yes, when I typed "Mind 7" I meant "XMind 7 Pro" -- it does have an outline pane but that pane is not for entering new topics -- it is limited to changing topic names and folding.

MindNode as outliner
1/27/2016
Many mind mapping apps have outline panels. (I'm a sucker for these things.) All of these are OS X:
MindNode has one of the better panels supporting folding, and keyboard shortcuts for indent/out...
Caret looks interesting, as well as @Dr Andus' suggested approach.
Chrome on iOS does not support Chrome Web Store apps, unfortunately. There is no Caret client for iOS. (A couple apps have the na...
Scapple
1/23/2016
Delineato manages to keep hierarchies in OPML exports -- Mac only because its iOS version doesn't export OPML. Concepts at the "root" level (i.e., those that have no parents) are not always exported...
Bill, could you post a link to the source for the "Lists" app -- it's kind a generic search in Google and I haven't honed in on it.

Sort of a "Paul is dead" moment.
Sorry to see it go --
"gone to that great Alphabet company" -- a joke, or did Alphabet buy it, or have the devs hired on with Google's parent?

Ulysses progress
1/3/2016
In fairness, I'd like to be quoted for what I actually wrote in the other thread -- which was generally about my satisfaction with Ulysses as is:
"I think Ulysses has plateaued—in a graceful wa...
Oh, sorry -- my comment on DEVONthink 3 was more aspirational than concrete -- though enticing hints are dropped here and there in the forum.
For 2015, I'm pleased with how Curio and iThoughts (all platforms) continue to mature and I anticipate continuing evolution of new features for them.
I think Ulysses has plateaued -- in a graceful wa...
Yet another Markdown editor...

Not sure when this one arrived :
"Dillinger is a cloud-enabled, mobile-ready, offline-storage, AngularJS powered HTML5 Markdown editor."

Installable on Linux, OS X, (Windows?)
MarginNote for OS X is available
12/31/2015
I've been using MarginNote and LiquidText and can point out a few differences:
MarginNote has an OS X version, LiquidText does not. I think a LiquidText version on a desktop or laptop would be quite...
