I think that I have asked this question before on this forum, but you know how it is with these senior moments-Does anyone know what is going on with Notetaker from Aquaminds Software? I haven’t used it for a while, but I fired it up this morning to see how it compares with some of the other stuff that has come up in the last few years. The build that I have is from 2011, and when I looked to see if there were updates, the software told me that I had the most up-to-date version. I took a look at the Aquaminds website, and it doesn’t look like it has been updated since 2011. The latest blog posting is from May of 2011.

Can’t say, but looking briefly at the site, I see that they have an unusual Linux download (free trial) - a world in which there are very few competitors. Aside from its future, what do you think of Notetaker’s current capabilities? I gather you don’t use it much these days.

Notetaker is on sale in the Apple App Store for Mac, but the latest update dates from Dec 2013.

NoteTaker and Circus Ponies Notebook were neck-and-neck about 8 years ago, then NoteTaker took an odd direction with its iOS app. Notebook also didn’t do well with iOS, but that seems to have shaken out better. For myself, I think ultimately Alfons Schmidt’s Notebooks outdid them both.

I’ve wanted very badly to like both NoteTaker and CP Notebook. NoteTaker was one of those apps that I was drooling over when I was stuck in Windows-land. And Notebook was one of my first purchases once I moved back to the Mac. There is something seductive about that darn notebook metaphor. But I just can’t warm up to either one of them. Curio is a better notebook choice on the Mac, I believe.
