Oops! Spelling mistake. I meant intriguing, that is, interesting.
Would anyone on this forum like to comment on Writing Outliner for MS Word? I've downloaded a trial version, played with it an hour or so, and find it most intruding. Does anyone know if it works with...

Foolness, please keep your post brief and to the point. We are not getting any younger, you know.

Encourage all posters to be brief and to the point. I have noticed that recently many post are long-winded and, in part, irrelevant to the issue at hand. Brevity and relevance, please.
XLnotes discussion
7/28/2012
I've been using XLNotes for quite some time now, and as I have said in a previous thread, I am surprised no one else has thought of introducing such a useful and essential EXCEL add-in. I only hope X...

Great idea. Works well. Someone should have thought of this EXCEL add-in a long time ago. I hope the programmers keep developing and improving the software.
New UltraRecall version released

Disappointing "Upgrade," to put it mildly. Worth perhaps $5, hardly $50, for such a miserly upgrade. Kinook, you let us down. Again.
XLNotes EXCEL Add-in
4/11/2012
I use MS EXCEL for a variety of purposes, even outlining, so I was pleased to hear that recently the XLNotes MS EXCEL add-in has been upgraded (to 8.0). The website is: http://xlnotes.com/. The add-in...
Greetings. Someone on this forum wrote that the Windows version of this software is three years behind the Mac version. Is this an accurate assertion? I was on the verge of pre-ordering a Windows vers...
Greetings. I am currently using the latest version of Ultra Recall (Pro 4.2), and I have been waiting and waiting for Kinook to come out with a new version that will include global searching across da...
TreePad Business 7.7.3 is now available
8/10/2011
Could you please give us a brief comparison of the strengths and weaknesses of TreePad versus, say, UltraRecall or a few of the other popular approximately same-category PIMs?

Mark, I'm using FireFox 5, and I am having the same UR freezing problems. It is probably the fault of these bloody browsers, and not UR. I am tired of fiddling around with them, though.

Google Docs! Well, who knows when Google will decide to dump this feature, plus I would have a lot of uploading, converting, slicing and dicing, etc. My point, to repeat -- I have a folder crammed wit...

The problem with Mendeley (they should change this name: whenever I see it I am reminded of Dr. Death, Josef Mengele) is you get only 1 gig of free space, and I have about 40 gigs of pdfs, and the num...

Regarding Qiqqa, it is as I said, a very intriguing and cleverly designed program, though not aesthetically. However, it's OCR-ing feature is not nearly as good as ABBYY's.

Tried Mendeley some years ago, then lost interest. Citavi is great (http://www.citavi.com/), but too expensive. Qiqqa is intriguing.

Greetings!
I have a folder on my computer that is packed with over 4,000 pdfs of various sizes (most are academic journal articles, but some are scanned books / pdfs of over 100 megs), and the number...
What a good Outliner should have
3/7/2010
I have been keeping a close eye on an intriguing MS Excel 2007, 2010 add-in called XLNotes (http://www.xlnotes.com/). I use it to add notes and images to Excel spreadsheet cells. It's a vast improveme...
Let me second the endorsement of XLNotes, which is a few days away from version 3.0. Check it out at http://xlnotes.com/eng/. It overcomes the limitations and cumbersomeness of the Comments feature of...
pim with these text-searching features?
11/29/2009
After reading this post I downloaded "RightNote," and have been toying with it all day. It is very impressive, and gives WhizFolders a run for its money. I was wondering if any members of this Forum h...
Any Thoughts on GeneralKB?
11/9/2009
Recently I stumbled upon this previously unknown (to me, anyway) "free-form database / knowledge-base" software, so I downloaded a trial version, and much to my surprise found the program to be intrig...
UltraRecall v4 update worth it?
8/24/2009
To try to return to the original topic -- viz., is the UR 4 upgrade worth it? -- I would say a resounding yes. Aside from Jan R's (who apparently is in the PR business, by the way) bruised feelings re...
UR is a great program, one that can handle huge amounts of data, but I've got several encyclopedias with thousands upon thousands of entries (nodes), so I found it to be easier to divide up the data I...
A clarification, please. According to Stephen Z. and Franz G., DevonThink Pro features searches across databases, but Chris T. says the two features I am interesting in (global searching and hit highl...
Franz, if I may,
Thanks for the information. By the way, do you know when DevonThink 2.0 will be out of beta? I couldn't find any indication on their website. It seems to be the program I am looking ...
