Has anyone tried Liquid Text (http://liquidtext.net/)? I haven’t tried either one, but I’d be interested to see a comparison.

I’ve been looking for a solution for annotation and organizing annotations and notes in a graphical (“mind map”) manner. I can do it with Curio but it’s a lot of drag and drop and there’s no link between the note and the source text. Tinderbox—forget it; not an annotation solution. MarginNote iOS does this well, and so if MarginNote is cleanly ported to OS X, I think it will create a new niche.

LiquidText is nice, but it does not have the export features that I like in MarginNote—export to .mmap or OmniOutliner or Evernote. I think getting notes of out LiquidText could use a rethink by the designer. On the other hand, LiquidText has some unusual methods of viewing the annotated document. In “HighlightView” one can squeeze the document down to show just the highlights—the content between highlights disappears. For a quick review, this is a nice feature.
I understand that we’ll be seeing LiquidText on OS X sometime in 2016.

perhaps even useclark for mac might be included? I know its more focused on comprehension, over noting, but it certainly helps with both!
