Infohesive

I already suggested a couple of names: "Grand Vista" and "EchoNotes"
Here are a couple of additional ideas:
"Freedom Notes" because you are not limited in the ways you can view your notes.

I agree with those who say Infohesive has a nice, clean user interface. It looks like a well-thought out and developed application. It does beg the question, why bother? I don't really see anything ne...
Yet another tree-based PIM
1/31/2008
This one is called Idea Rover. It does seem to take a little bit of a different approach to this function. You type in your outline in one document using a prefix for each entry. For instance:

XMind

Regading XMind, one of the map styles I find especially intriguing is the "2D Chart." Essentially it turns your map or section of the map into a table. I haven't seen this on other mind mappers, altho...

XMind
1/29/2008
So I took the plunge and bought XMind. It is on sale at Bits for $99 -- a savings of $50. This is the first mind mapping/charting program I've bought since Inspiration, which I don't use anymore. Xmin...

I hope they are well capitalized.

Notecase Pro in 2008
1/28/2008
They actually have a Windows version, which feels rather rudimentary and not polished. The hoisting feature was nice, though.

I remember discovering Maple and MyInfo about the same time, maybe seven years ago. At the time, I thought Maple the more sophisticated program, but since then MyInfo has blossomed while Maple seems t...

1/22/2008
Hi,
I just noticed that XMind will be on sale through Bits du Jour next Tuesday. Does anyone have some experience with this mind/concept mapper? What do you think of it? Thanks.

Daly,
I was going to ask if you had considered MyInfo. I confess to not using it myself, even though I like a lot about it. I recently upgraded to the new, portable version with the intention of maki...

This looks like an interesting piece of software, but it hardly replaces a good information manager. First of all, it doesn't appear to have any serious note taking capability. Second, you have to cap...

This does indeed look like an interesting piece of software. My CRIMP genes are engaged.
My initial reaction, however, is that the application for i2Brain is somewhat limited. Yes, it can help you br...

To the list of programs that exist on both Mac and PC, you can add Super Note Card, which is Java-based.
On the other hand, you have Tinderbox, which has been promising a PC version for at least five...
MaxThink question

MaxThink has basic text formatting: bold, italic, underline. It accepts tabs. But it does not have bullets or autonumbering. It has no table function, and I would be surprised if it could accept a pas...
