Check it out at http://www.jetbrains.net/confluence/display/OMEA/this+link.
I’m incredibly excited that it looks like the long promised move to open source is a reality. While I am unable to locate a download link on the current pages, I think I’m just a bit early (note the post date/time of the message above!). But it clearly is in out-the-door status now.
The list of changes, especially migrating to .NET 3.0 leaves me hopeful that some of the original .NET 1.1-based performance issues have been worked out.
As noted in my post last week, if this baby is ready for prime time, I just saved an incredible amount of CRIMPcash and will finally back to the one tool that actually met my information-organization needs….
Welcome back, Omea!!!

Again, I am begging if someone could give me some compare and contrasts between Omea and Idea in terms of what they do and how they do it. I know Omea is faster than it was, which makes it a contender for me. If it compares well with Ideain other ways it is also cheaper (ie. zero $) compared with Idea.
Please—someone must have experience with both.
Thanks.

I downloaded Omea Pro 2.2, but it obviously isn’t the new version …build date is 2/2/07. Odd that it synchronizes with Outlook Tasks, but apparently not Outlook Notes.

In my desperation to look for a Google Reader replacement, I downloaded and installed Omea Reader today, and it still seems to be v. 2.2, build 2/2/07…
There are a lots of recommendations flying around these days for replacing Google Reader but I’m having a hard time finding a decent online service that’s not full of bloat and is fast and simple enough to use. I went back to my old Bloglines account, but unfortunately it’s far too slow in getting the feeds in.
Any suggestions for a decent online RSS reader? “Decent” meaning that it is more or less like Google Reader in its speed and simplicity…

One interesting effect of importing all my Google Reader feeds into Omea was that I discovered I had dozens of dead feeds in there. For some reason I never noticed that in Google Reader, but Omea displays “(error)” next to dead feeds.
