Just a heads-up that Tinderbox 4 is out. Tinderbox is somewhat like a hybrid between Zoot and PersonalBrain, or a programmable, agent-based version of MindManager, depending on how you want to look at it. Outline items can have user-defined attributes and programmable agents can act on your items, doing various things to them. For instance, you can have a high-level visual representation of your outline drawn on your screen, and have todos “pop-out” of the outline and migrate towards the top of the screen as they become due through agent actions. This sort of thing is probably familiar to Zoot users, but Tinderbox takes the concept a lot farther.

Their website is a little nutty, but you can get an idea of how it works:

It looks like they’ve also released a 240 page book about the product.
