Hate to add to the jealousy, but VoodooPad 4 http://flyingmeat.com/voodoopad/ is an amazing wiki program, but it only works on the latest OS X operating system. Many people using it say that they couldn’t imagine what they would use it for, but the ease with which the program creates links got them addicted. (I like Scrivener, and I’m not sure I have a use for VoodooPad, but it is fun to play around with.) Comes in 3 versions, free, $19.95, and $49.95, depending on features. Even if PC users can’t use it, it provides a pretty impressive standard for what such programs can offer.
