Manfred's blog
4/16/2009
Hi, all,
I don't think it has been mentioned here before, so I just wanted to point out to forum members that Manfred has a very interesting blog on the subject of note taking... he's been too modest...
My Info on Bits du Jour next week
4/14/2009
Bits just announced next Tuesday's offerings, and My Info is going to be available for $19.95, which is $30 off the regular price. At 20% the price of askSam, it is a far better choice.

You are welcome, Alexander. The one thing askSam used to excel at was searching its data. It would return results lightning fast and do fuzzy seaches. But we the advent of desktop search engines, this...

I would love to be able to recommend askSam. Alas, I can't.
The concept is great. Drop everything into a free form bucket and find it as needed. Unfortunately, it isn't that easy.
To be able to run...

I too find plain text a liberating environment in which to write. I often turn to NoteTab when I need a clean space where I can write with little distraction.
Some other plain text tools to consider ...
What's up wth Zoot these days?
4/6/2009
Jim,
A few months ago, I summarized information from Zoot's developer, Tom Davis, about what would be coming in Zoot 6. Here's is me quoting Tom:

In Zoot 6 you can capture an entire we...
I am not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for (I'm not familiar with Framework), but there is an application called Correlate that sounds like it might be close. Here is the URL:

What's up with Brainstorm

I just wanted to make this follow-up report. I had the chance today to chat with the new developer of Brainstorm. As Alexander has reported, he certainly is a Brainstorm enthusiast and I think he has ...
Scrivener-like outliner for Windows?
3/24/2009
If the cork board is the most important feature you are looking for, I think you're mostly out of luck in the PC world, with the possible exception of the Writer's Cafe/Storylines option.
As for sing...
Just a notification for any Mac users. Circus Ponies Notebook is just $25 today at www.mupromo.com. That's a great deal on a pretty formidable application.

Tinderbox 4.6

Hugh,
Thank you for the thoughtful reply and the links to the Lit Lat forum pages. I had read the second thread, but hadn't seen the first. Michael Bywater makes a strong case for Tinderbox. Amber ad...
Tinderbox 4.6
3/5/2009
I noted that there is a new release of Tinderbox -- that hard to classify application for the Mac. I remain very interested in the program, but the high initial cost ($229), in addition to the high co...
What's up with Brainstorm
3/3/2009
I used the contact information on the web page to send an e-mail to the new owner. He responded and sounds as if he is looking for input to help determine the future of Brainstorm.
Anyway, I just wan...
What's up with Brainstorm
3/2/2009
A few weeks ago someone on this forum provided a link to a short Twitter announcement from David Tebbut of Brainstorm saying he'd sold the program to another company. However, there has yet to be any ...
OneNote Canvas
2/27/2009
That would be great functionality to add to my OneNote... unfortunately I don't use Vista. It's too bad that it doesn't work on XP, because that overview would be great. Thanks for the heads up, Chris...
TreeSheets

TreeSheets
2/23/2009
I've been playing around a bit with TreeSheets, and I am excited by the concept. The Zoom feature is great -- like hoisting to an individual cell, although in TS you can see an entire grid.

This is an intriguing application. I'm currently at home -- where I'm Mac-based -- but intend to check out TreeSheet at the office. This is timely, because I've been thinking more about keeping inform...
Hi all,
Sorry to go off-topic, but I really value the opinions of this group. I am looking for a good, relatively low-cost customer management solution for the organization I work for. We have needed...
