Out of idle curiosity I did a Google search on MORE and found this site. It is kind of neat to find a site devoted to my old friend.

I have been an enthusiastic user of outliners for more than 15 years. First there was ThinkTank, in retrospect, a clumsy and unfriendly outliner, but I was thrilled when I found it and tried it.

Over the years I tried many outliners, but I never found anything as satisfying as MORE. I went through the entire sequence of MOREs up to MORE 3.1. I still use it for planning and analyses almost every day. As an adjunct I also use ThoughtMgr on may Visor handheld. This a very basic and well thought out ouliner. I use it frequently and upload outlines to my Macintosh via the MEMO application. There is another, richer outiner for Palm compatable handhelds called BrainForest. It is too much of a good thing for a handheld. ThoiughtMgr is, in my opinion, a perfect outliner for a handheld.

I have tried the outliners in MS Word and AppleWorks but they but their meager capabilities are too inadequate for sustained use.

This is an interesting site, but where is it going?

Arnold,
