ConnectedText v5

@Daly
If you are still interested in giving CT a trial, there are some topics in the "Welcome to ConnectedText" project written by users which can help you get started. The one I found most valuable ...
Outliner/PIM roll call: Fall 2011
9/24/2011
I live in the world of a Windows PC at work and a MacBook for personal use. Here are the information management applications I use most:
Work (Windows):

Alexander,
I have just purchased the upgrade to CT5 because I am considering (strongly) shifting from Zoot to CT. I exported a database from Zoot of about 180 records, each of which became a stand-al...
Alexander, I just check and you can export any note as an RTF file -- though it isn't immediately obvious how to do so. If you're trialing Debrief, try the toolbar button that has a little green, righ...

Eduardo,
Congratulations. I'm looking forward to trying CT 5.

Debrief is one of those applications that shines brightly in some areas and is just infuriating in others. (I also like how I can press one button to shrink Debrief down to one small window that can b...
Why do you CRIMP?
9/20/2011
GeorgeB used my answer, so I'll elaborate: It's damn fun.
I'm intrigued by how people try to solve the problem of information overload. I have been since I got my first personal computer almost 30 ye...
Hi, Alexander,
It doesn't appear that a note can be included in multiple subject folders. However, you can "tag" notes with the index function. You can give each note multiple index tags. Then select...
I don't want to beat a dead horse (don't want to beat a live one either), but an interesting option in the journaling department is Debrief. Perhaps you've already checked it out and dismissed it... I...

Mori gets an update
9/17/2011
Thanks for the heads up on this. When I first switched to the Mac, I tried Mori. It has two features that are not common on Mac OS info managers: 1. Notes can have sub-notes; and 2. custom columns. Th...
Outline within outliner?
9/16/2011
My impression is that the original question related to being able to have an outline of outlines. (In fact, there are a few programs that can actually do this: Debrief Notes, ListPro from Iliumsoft). ...

It is an impressive program. It still has quirks, like th...
Outline within outliner?

You can achieve something like this using Noteliner.

@Daly,
I have no idea why no one has tried to create -- or at least succeeded in creating -- a Windows version of GrandView. Frankly, I don't even think there is anything on the Mac that is as fully ...

What's the state of the art?
9/9/2011
I've just been wondering what the current state of the art outlining application is. It seems there has been no real innovation in this area in a while. That isn't to say that there are not a lot of t...
The number of applications that allow you to view your writing in a table format are limited and none of those, that I'm aware of, has anything like the outlining capabilities you're looking for. $Bil...
Tools to work with lots of numbers

I am sure you are aware of B-Liner, but I'll put it out there anyway, just for old time's sake:

Noteliner 3.2 update

I don't recall seeing this mentioned previously, so I want to make sure all interested outliner folks are aware that Noteliner has received a recent update, including a navigation pane.

If the information I collect is very miscellaneous or random, I will put it into Zoot (when at my office PC) or DevonThink on my Macbook. But if it fits neatly into existing categories of interest, it...
About this particular outliner

I miss Ted's articles, too. He can be found, at times, asking questions or making comments on the Tinderbox forum.
