Noteliner adds tables
7/3/2011
Noteliner is one of my favorite applications for Windows. In fact, it is so good, I wish Sam would do a version for Macs.
The table feature is interesting. At first it looks as if an entire table is...
Excellent, thoughtful post, Daly. And thanks for the mention!
I've become a bit of a morning person in recent years. Not from choice, but when I got married three years ago, my wife's dowery included...
Word Perfect Lightning
6/22/2011
Daly,
It is weird that you asked this just now, as I downloaded and installed Lightning just yesterday! I'd tried it before, but was curious about how it may have evolved. I couldn't find any way to ...

JB,
Don't know if you're looking for constructive criticism, but I'm offering it anyway. That video is too long, and you make the error of assuming viewers have a basic understanding of how BrainStor...
Qiqqa and Devonthink
6/17/2011
Well, for PDFs maybe. But DevonThink handles virtually any file, where Qiqqa only appears to handle PDFs. Good for scholars, maybe less useful for the rest of us.

What is the URL you're looking at? When I try to go to the www.brainstormsw.com site, it bounces me to this

where I end up with an "Internet Exp...
GS-Base
6/16/2011
For the money, GS-Base is a nice database. I've got a copy on my office PC. For me, the biggest drawback, and why I can't really use it, is that it does not adequately print mailing labels. It has the...
What you are describing sounds very similar to the way Zoot worked before its recent update. Plain text files with delimited field headings in the body of the note, which could also be displayed in ta...
Hardware CRIMP?
6/3/2011
Just to make my own clarification, I am not implying that anyone buying a Kindle is subverting the world of publishing. I just want to make sure the fine alternative to the Kindle does not get short s...
Hardware CRIMP?
6/3/2011
Let's not forget there is a new option from Barnes & Noble, the new Nook:

It looks like a very nice reading instrument and you don't get locked...
Hardware CRIMP?
6/1/2011
Sorry if it sounded as if I was trying to tell you what would work for you. I don't like to do that. I was just daydreaming, based upon thinking about where the thread was going!

Hardware CRIMP?
6/1/2011
If it were me, rather than carrying around and paying for an iPad and a netbook, I'd just go with the 11" MacBook Air. Close to the same cost, no Windows operating system to deal with. Practically the...
Personal Memory Manager
5/29/2011
Another application (not developed for several years, I believe) which had a philosophy behind its development was The Literary Machine, an application that appealed to me in theory, but didn't work r...
Software for Authors
5/22/2011
In my first job in marketing, I was a copywriter for the bicycle manufacturer Cannondale. I didn't do any graphic design, but I was enlisted to be one of the small marketing department staff who learn...
Software for Authors
5/21/2011
Okay, I keep waiting for someone to chime in by saying they prefer a goose quill and parchment; or, better yet, stone tablets and chisels!
Give me a laptop computer with a nice keyboard any day! I've...
Jeff,
You'd been unlikely to find a definition for CRIMPing anywhere but on this forum. It's a made up acronym that stands for Compulsive-Reactive Information Manager Purchasing. i.e. It's what so ma...
Tags, Wikis, and Zoot
5/17/2011
I'm not a big fan of Tags as a primary method of organization. The first tab-oriented application I tried was Personal Knowbase (although they call them keywords). I found that my list of keywords alw...
Software for Authors
5/17/2011
Exceptionally interesting topic!
As Hugh says, different strokes for different folks. But I'll take that one step further in that I use different software solutions depending on what I am working on....
Seeing this was a shocking, but pleasant surprise. Thanks for the heads up.
If my software review deserves such kind words -- that's a big if -- it's due to all the smart people on this forum, from w...
I still have not received a reply to my inquiry to the new developer.
Frankly, I don't know of any instances where a change of ownership of software has had a positive result, no matter what good int...
Zoot XT release date announced
5/9/2011
Those of you interested in Zoot XT (that is, the long-long-long awaited Zoot 6) are probably already aware of this, but just in case you are not, you may be intriuged to know that Tom Davis has announ...
I've used their "contact us" button to send an e-mail asking what the deal is. So far no response.
Interesting. I admired IdeaMason -- bought a license -- but found it cumbersome, and not just because it was slow. Still, it's good news that they are bringing IdeaMason back. I wonder what changed th...
