Yes, good to see such a thing actually exists for the PC (I’ve never warmed to OneNote as a corkboard). I’m particularly impressed by Story Turbo’s export features (HTML, RTF, PNG, blog etc.).

For now TreeSheets will remain my ‘corkboard’ of choice for planning plotlines and brainstorming, as I just find it a lot faster to use. But I could see Story Turbo emerging as a strong alternative for certain jobs that would benefit from those export options.

As for Outline 4D, I’m loving it as an outliner for transitioning from bare-bones Bonsai topic outline to final outline with inline notes and initial draft. I’ve got almost 7000 words in it and it’s still easy to work with. However, its ‘corkboard’ is a different animal altogether from the above.
