I agree.
Subscriptions are the model in areas where there is a large, expanding, and changing content. Think streaming services. Things that are "consumed". Subscribing to software makes little ...
Interesting. They changed the price since the post first went up around midnight.

NoteCase Pro v. 4.3.1 released
8/8/2017
Is there an iOS version on the horizon? I've always hesitated from purchasing NoteCase because it is not "cross-platform" in the Apple universe.
Aquaminds NoteTaker 4?
8/2/2017
It's good news. NoteTaker is a good product that I've avoided for almost five years due to the lack of attention. Perhaps someone bought the company?
Interesting that they would spend time investi...
The Windows 10 version *does* support handwriting -- it doesn't support converting handwriting to text.

MuBu 幕布 Outliner
7/25/2017
I like mind mapping, but I don't see why I would use this implementation. The UI is too jiggly -- like working with a bowl of gelatin. More substantive -- there's no context to the nodes, no tag or...

CRIMPers = prospective time multipliers?
7/13/2017
The longer I take breath, the more my conviction grows that terms like "responsibility", "self reliance", "willpower", "grit", "determination" do not describe behaviors that can be learned and improve...
Appreciate the info. I signed up with Dynalist and set my Outlinely subscription to cancel when the paid-up period ends. I like the integration with Google calendar -- even though it's not (yet?) ...

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.

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.
