You might want to look at InfoSelect or Evernote. I have a love hate relationship with all these tools. In Zoot I have never liked that it splits that data over many databases. UltraRecall is very stable and has lots of nice customization features but I don’t really like the way it searches (doest not highlight found text within items). Infoselect has a wonderful search function and I love the editor. Its probably the most feature rich but it has a bunch of quirckiness in most of those features many of which were thrown in and not thought out well. EverNote is on the right track. Great dumping ground and really fast search function. In adition it has the same basic concept of virtual folders that Zoot has although nowhere near as powerful.

If I was stuck on deserted island with only one pim it I would probably take InfoSelect. The developer would probably appreciate that since presumably I could not complain about it from there. :-).
