Starting fresh

Hello, everyone.

I just purchased a new laptop computer and see this as an opportunity to free myself from CRIMP clutter. I’m going to try very hard to limit the number of programs I install on my new machine, which will be my primary writing and research tool. Ah, but which programs make the grade? Here is my preliminary list of CRIMP-related software that I’m considering:

- Zoot: my favorite means of gathering random bits of information
- OneNote 2007 when it comes out: for assembling data into projects
- Brain Storm: for rapid note-taking and brain storming
- The Journal: for daily journal and other writing
- Idea Mason: for research notes and composition

You’d think with those tools, I should be able to manage all my information and writing needs (besides final layout). Am I forgetting anything crucial?

What would your “start fresh” list look like?
