CRIMPers = prospective time multipliers?

Barvas seems similar to Concept Draw's suite -- desktop apps with cross-app integration: Concept Draw MindMap, Draw, and Project -- and online Concept Draw Plan team collaboration. Good products -- ...
NVIVO vs Devonthink
7/8/2017
Curio can tag whole "figures" (text boxes, images, shapes) -- but not bits of figures -- words in text, etc. QDA apps specialize in tagging the bits -- a level of detail not common outside dedicated ...

I read that. He likes developers therefore the developer's pricing is reasonable.

I can vouch for that. InfoQube on a Windows 10 VM under Parallels is top notch.

NVIVO vs Devonthink
7/4/2017
Well, one difference is that NVIVO costs almost 8 times the top of the line edition of DEVONthink.
NVivo is structured mainly for qualitative data analysis, or QDA. It is useful as a research tool i...
I forgot to mention a good thing about Alfons Schmid's Notebooks is that all documents are store in plain site in the filesystem, inside an unencoded folder hierarchy in whatever format the document w...

Notebooks as DayOne replacement
7/3/2017
I should also mention that Alfons has always been very responsive to user questions and suggestions. For me that's a big plus.
Notebooks as DayOne replacement
7/3/2017
I have used Notebooks occasionally and always enjoy using it. It has a very tidy interface, uses the folder/document organization metaphor, and does well with markdown. Notebooks and notes can be ...
Thanks for pointing out that Bear imports JSON exported from Day One -- it's an easy process.
Not sure I'll take the extra step to move from Bear to MacJournal.

Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/30/2017
If the question of using the same app for business and private writing is not an issue for someone, I think Scrivener would be an excellent choice. There are sure a lot of folks who write blogs abou...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/30/2017
Regarding alternatives to Day One. There is the venerable (because it's been around a long long time) MacJournal -- but the iOS version is not great, I have no idea about encryption, and the develop...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/30/2017
The iOS and macOS versions were updated today -- the update appears to have restored access to my existing data and the sync between macOS and iOS.
Kind of reminds me of the Smile Software fiasco...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/29/2017
It's good that you got your installation working. No luck over here -- my data is still held hostage to the demand to pay. My advice stands: don't let the app upgrade. If there's a bug, let the...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/28/2017
Yeah, well they lied.
Mac AppStore and iOS AppStore updated my DayOne macOS and iOS apps. As soon as they launched I was locked out of all but one journal (I have numerous) and sync was locked up. ...
Day One gives itself a "Premium" service
6/28/2017
Jumping on the subscription bandwagon, the journaling app, Day One, announced a premium version for $49.99/year (a discount is available for the first year for new users -- a bigger discount for certa...
Dynalist iOS app is out
6/24/2017
It seems to support offline work.
Must be me, but navigation and scrolling in the iOS app seems to be difficult. The experience is much better in portrait mode than landscape -- on and iPad in lands...

6/21/2017
I participated in the Quiver iOS beta program -- there's some sort of sad story going on with the developer. They wanted to match the macOS version, then ran of time, and had to move to another city ...

NotePlan iOS
6/15/2017
NotePlan for iOS is now out of beta.
Review from Brett Terpstra here https://www.macstories.net/news/noteplan-calendar-markdown-notes-comes-to-ios/
On my iPad, NotePlan sits side-by-side with Outlin...
Aeon Timeline v2.2.2 (for Mac), out recently, offers a new capability to sync with Ulysses projects. Aeon has always (?) had the ability to sync with Scrivener, and it is interesting that it is exte...
No, that's not the case. CloudMounter spoofs the Mac file system into thinking Dropbox is an external volume, therefore eliminating the need to sync copies of files between Dropbox and your Mac. Bu...
Interesting. Thank you.
Seems that he's managed to invent The Brain (or Vue, or CMAP, or Tinderbox, or Kumu).
In reply a comment, the developer notes "Also, [The Brain's] schema is still very mu...
iOS 11 -- a CRIMP is coming on
6/6/2017
Worth noting that the 10.5 iPad Pro comes with up to 512 GB storage. Equivalent to most higher end laptops. Clearly targeted to users who need a large base of documents to carry around off-line.
