Thanks for the recommendations, Hugh. I had seen Hazel talked about, but wasn't exactly sure what it did. I'll take a closer look.
Thanks, again.

I've been dabbling with my new MacBook for the past week and a half. I've downloaded several outliners/information managers/writing tools... major CRIMP action! I'm a long way from being able to give ...

I have really appreciated all the great suggestions. I've learned of some new, interesting applications.
BTW, though I'm getting a 2007 model, it is coming with the Leopard OS... I made sure of that....

Two additional Mac PIM-like apps cropped up from the references you all supplied me:
1. Curio (http://www.zengobi.com/products/curio/)
2. SOHO Notes (http://www.chronosnet.com/Products/sohonotes.html...

I appreciate the input from all. Here's what I'm leaning toward now:

- for general all-purpose note taker: Circus Ponies Notebook (because I like OneNote in the PC world)...

Okay, I too have now joined those who have made the move to Mac. I just ordered a MacBook, and I am eagerly awaiting all the fresh CRIMPing I can do on the new machine.
I know there has been plenty o...
Evernote 3.0 Beta

I just found Alexander's comments on Evernote 3.0 in an earlier post. Sorry I missed those prior to my posting on this. Does anyone else have any thoughts about Evernote 3.0.

Evernote 3.0 Beta
4/9/2008
I just downloaded the new beta for Evernote 3.0 for PC. I haven't used version 2.0 for various reasons, but I found it to be a well-designed, well-engineered program. I'm scratching my head about vers...
I didn't listen to the podcast, but I did work my way over to the new Evernote web site. It is kind of stunning to see how different the Mac version of Evernote is from the PC version. The thumbnail v...

Graham,
Great list. I have a few additions. The ideal task manager would have a GANTT charting feature (which means tasks would require a start date, as well as a due date). ECCO had this and I found...
Critical Zoot update

I just noticed that Tom Davis has posted an update to Zoot, which he terms critical. It also has some nice new features. Here's what he said about it on the Zoot forum:
Critical Fix: Prevents a possi...
short time memory and outliner software
3/26/2008
I am far from an expert on memory or learning, but I'd still like to throw in my thoughts on this subject.
First of all, I am uncertain of the value in worrying about short-term memory. That's not le...

If I am reading this properly, it sounds as if you are asking if it would be useful to be able to select items and then view the content in one continuous window. I think this would be a useful featur...

I bought a license for CT about a year ago. I recall that there was a somewhat arcane and annoying method for registering my copy after I'd bought the license. Assuming this process hasn't been improv...
There are not many choices of single-pane outliners in the PC world. I'm aware of two others, but I'm not sure you can (actually, I'm fairly sure you can't) add images to them, but you might want to c...

Omea Pro 3 - to be released

I don't think I got an answer to my question regarding Omea Pro, so I'd like to ask it again. Does Omea have any value for someone who doesn't use Outlook, or is all the power in its coordination with...
Hi, all,
I just noticed that a week from today, LSB will be available for $15.95 at Bits du Jour. Seems like a bargain.

Omea Pro 3 - to be released

PIMFan,
Thank you for the extensive review of Omea Pro. It sounds very impressive. However, is there any reason to use it if you don't use Outlook? Can it do these wonderful things with other e-mail ...
I don't know if you would consider this different or not, but here's how it works in Zoot when you are searching a single database: As you type in the search field, a drop down list appears with items...
