- ADM
- Taskline
- ewallet
I keep meaning to post here about Taskline. Y’all should check it out. I’ve tried all the flavors of automatic task scheduling software, and I didn’t really want something that runs in Outlook, but ended up with Taskline because it really works the best. I am addicted to it.
Ewallet I just use just as an encrypted password keeper. I’m sure there are better ones, but I’ve used it for probably 8-9 years now.

My list for Windows:
* Ideamason
* Mind Genius Business
* Infoselect (or Zoot 32bit)
My list for Mac OS X:
* Scrivener (definitely)
* maybe Tinderbox (but only if the Mac is my main machine because investing the time to learn TB for my “fiction machine” wouldn´t pay off for me)
* Mind Manager

MyLife Organized
Supermemo or FullRecall (both flashcard/learning software)
KeyNote for notetaking etc. (though at the moment I’m moving away and evaluating MyInfo, and IdeaMason for writing part, but if I was forced for three right now, it would still have to be KeyNote)

Assuming that printer drivers are covered by the OS - pdf.
And Assuming the the Pic Viewer offers image edting.
- Ultra Recall
- IMatch - Image Cataloger and more…
- a Presentation Layer - website generator or CMS or DeskTop Publishing
UR - web capture, file management and organization, data exchange (good range of data import and export), database is distributable
IMatch (http://www.photools.com) is an interesting program. Although it is geared to photographers, it is reasonably priced ($59) and offers many features that go beyond cataloging just images. This program is worth a look on many levels.
A Presentation Layer
A case can made for any of these “outliner” programs that the presentation layer is the distributable data file (usually read-only, or shared writable by licesened users). Many of these also have good website generation, and if you consider distributing as pdf - there’s a lot of presentation power already in many of these programs.
But sometimes you just need a more specialized tool. A dedicated website generator or content management system (CMS). Web Idea Tree (http://www.webideatree.com) packs a lot of punch for the price ($30).
I’m a long time PageMaker (Win) user and it covers a lot of bases; Serif Software has some good offerings (http://www.serif.com/pageplus/pageplusx2/).
I guess what I’m trying to say is that presenting or sharing your work (and play) is as important as what you use to collect and catalog. Seems to be the thrid leg of the stool.
