A critique of tagging
11/4/2023
I found this critical dissection by Tiago Forte of the problems with tagging interesting:

It reflects what I've long felt about tagging,...
This is an excellent question. I am not a very disciplined note-builder, so I may not be the best example, but I can't really think of any apps that have helped me develop my thinking or ideas in unex...
Brainstorm was mentioned recently in a thread. Today I learned of an app called Stashpad. Looking at a demonstration made me think Stashpad is similar in many ways to Brainstorm:
- The notes are gene...
Noteliner was a fine app. The funny thing was the developer -- if I recall right, his name is Sam Hawksworth -- used Macs, but he developed Noteliner for Windows. I tried to talk him into making a Mac...
If I understand your question accurately, I think you can do this in Scrintal. You select the notes you want and create a new board with them. You don't have to name the board, it will automatically b...

My mental jury is still out on whether Scrintal will evolve into an app that I found useful for my needs. However, I do admire the work they are doing. This article by Ece Kural, a co-founder of Scrin...
Yes, that's a major issue. The desktop versions do a lot with linking, pretty impressively. I would expect them to make links work at some point in the web version.

The AI is functional in the current web version of TheBrain, and it is impressive. I haven't had a need to use it much, but I have experimented with it. Once they've integrated the tech into the deskt...

Thanks for the notice about the hold and drag, Ken.

I just wrote a short overview of Bublup on my Medium channel for anyone who is interested in the app:

Heptabase - Crimp cured?
9/12/2023
Thank you for the thorough overview of Heptabase and why it works for you. I've been impressed by the software for a while. The feature set is pretty remarkable. I haven't gone all in with Heptabase, ...

Another followup on Mymind. One of the advantages is that you just save anything into Mymind without having to think about it. That's why it works as an Evernote replacement for me. The search is very...

Mymind does not have folders. It does have tags, and it has a feature called Spaces, which is basically a saved search, but acts somewhat like a folder. Here's video about Spaces:

Hi, Ken,
So I started a free account with Bublup, and so far I like it. It seems pretty easy to use. I too like Walling, but for the heck of it I copied details for our upcoming vacation into Bublup....

Have never heard of it before, either. It's a little hard to tell exactly how it works from the website, but it reminds me of Mymind.

You've done a great job with Sheet Planner. Congratulations. I'd use it if my office was equipped with Macs instead of PCs.

You can have multiple notebooks with Notetaker. You can open different instances of Notetaker, so that you can have multiple notebooks open at the same time, but you can't switch with a tab between th...
Taskade

I have flirted with Taskade for a while now. It has a lot of impressive features. But now I am going to give it a real try. The AI is impressive, although I don't see myself using it a lot... but who ...

Notetaker is very similar to Circus Ponies. In fact, it is my understanding that Notetaker came first and one of its developers left and forked into Circus Ponies. Notetaker is still available as a Ma...

Keep It Together was the forerunner of Together, which has now morphed into Keep It, I believe.

The end of Circus Ponies Notebook was the most graceless exit by a developer I've witnessed.
