ConnectedText vs. Scrivener
3/6/2012
First of all, thank you Hugh, Franz and Dr. Andus for your helpful suggestions. I will always welcome advice from this community,* which I respect and enjoy so much.
I have already chunked the manusc...
ConnectedText vs. Scrivener
3/6/2012
Franz,
The true answer is: nothing. But I'm desperate.
The task at hand is very vexing -- reworking a 100-page manuscript that is loaded with facts (it's a history of a Revolutionary War fortificat...
ConnectedText vs. Scrivener

Hugh,
That's an excellent suggestion, one of those "why didn't I think of that" solutions. Thank you for that wake up call.

ConnectedText vs. Scrivener

I have yet to really put CT to the test of writing long, more formal works. At my office, I am not required to write such documents. In my personal life, I do, but I am not very happy running CT throu...
ConnectedText; any case studies?

I agree with Alexander that if you're looking for a contact manager that does not need to output mailing labels or otherwise export information to a CSV file for mass communication, CT makes a great c...

Notes in one place - Wrong?

Glen,
Thanks for the run down on the applications you use. Also, thanks for the great video of how to use your academic library file for ConnectedText.
My own list of applications is pretty convolut...

Yep. That's what I meant... also accessible via right clicking with the text selected.

TheBrain 7 Beta
3/2/2012
I posted some rambling thoughts about TheBrain on my blog yesterday, in an effort to try to understand better why I like it, but why I don't use it for all my information management:

Evernote and Curio
2/29/2012
I have Curio on my MacBook and am starting to use Evernote more as a conduit of information between the MacBook, my office PC and my mobile device. In my experience, the interconnection between Curio ...
Thanks for the run down on how you use theBrain, Dominick.
I too find theBrain very useful, though I have now switched to ConnectedText for recording most of my notes. Nevertheless, theBrain remains ...

Wow. Someone who is actually imune to CRIMP. There is hope!

Writing tools for complex storytelling
2/24/2012
Dr Andus,
I'd still look at Scrivener to do this (with the caveat that I'm not sure Scriv for Windows is quite up to what I'm suggesting yet -- though I'm sure the Mac version can do it).
Here's wha...
Writing tools for complex storytelling

I think I understand the problem and your question (although if this response is way off the mark, then maybe I don't). It seems to me you could use Scrivener to compose your five strands, but the pie...
