Capacities 2025
1/28/2025
I just got an email about Capacities. These people develop on turbo. So many options, so much — class. AI with a knowledge base like this will be just crazy good. The email was news of Capacitie...
And Ken, you got that email on the 17th? Here it is the 22nd and they *still* are offering the free plan on their website. Sheesh.
XTiles — 2023
11/22/2023
Well, I started this discussion, so here’s the bottom line on my six months with XTiles. It’s just too slow. The responsiveness is simply not there, and in this world of easy comparisons, ...

And your observations are spot-on as well. I, too, have done the Walling to xTiles back to Walling and back again to xTiles. Your comment about Walling being visually overwhelming reflects my thoughts...
XTiles — 2023
5/1/2023
Thought I’d start a new xTiles thread since most of the earlier discussion was about a much less mature product.
How many here are using or have given xTiles a spin? It’s interesting and ...

RightNote's problems
11/28/2022
I owe the developer an apology. Rightnote is still being developed which, yes, deserves support. I was thinking of Cintanotes which stopped development 3+ years ago and still sells a $40 Pro version. ...

XYplorer Black Friday Sale

I remember looking at xyplorer a while back and I think maybe I liked the ways it handled photos. I can’t remember now what made it different in that respect. I’m thinking on starting a bi...

Craft 2.0 - For Everyone!
2/9/2022
The last discussion here about Craft was in June of 2021. It’s hard to know where to begin with so many new and exciting things happening since then.
- Craft Web App is now at near parity with ...

Steve, Thanks for the introduction to Supernotes.
Mindola's SuperNoteCard is still going strong -- since 2004 and a complete remake of the app around 2015 or so.
It is free for a limited numbers of pr...

I hope those of you who stopped reading Taking Note, when he announced the end of the blog, will follow the Internet Archive links (I posted in this thread) to three more years of great writing.

I’m one that read it, loved it, and was sad to see it go. What I DIDN’T know is that he went on to write 143 additional posts over the next three years! I have read dozens of these so far....
MyInfo 7 may be released soon

Instapaper is the best for these sites. I run into problems sometimes, but it’s pretty rare. I also like outline.com
(The)BrainDead? (Hopefully not yet)

Frankly, this is one of the weirdest threads ever on this forum. I think there is a lot more going on here than dislike of progress, etc. (maybe that should be ETC!!!) of TB. It reads like an unhealth...
