Evernote -> OS X Notes
3/22/2016
OS X 10.11.4 is out today and includes the promised feature to import Evernote notes into the Apple Notes app. Well, it does do to that. You have to export from Evernote first -- be sure to use .en...

Southbeach Modeller vs TheBrain
3/13/2016
I use Southbeach modeler. I think of it as a concept mapper on hyperdrive. But I wouldn't put it into the same category as TheBrain. A product similar to Southbeach is ThinkComposer. I don't reca...
Hyper Plan v2 is out
3/13/2016
Understood. Thanks Andy. You're a pretty gregarious fellow, I imagine, and a developer who's open to to the customer's interests and opinion. So, I'm sure a forum would be lively.
Absolutely agre...
Hyper Plan v2 is out
3/13/2016
Thanks Andy. Looking forward to using v2.
Do you have your own forum for users? I'm guessing there might be some emerging use cases or good practices that users would want to share if you had your ...
Evernote > OneNote converter
3/11/2016
Thanks for the update @WSP.
Personally not going to expect much from Microsoft on this. I use the OneNote clipping extension on Safari on a Mac. Clipping an article in Evernote takes less than 10 s...
Ulysses Mobile is released
3/9/2016
The share extension is beautifully designed. Select text in a document in some app, select Ulysses from the share menu and the text opens in an intermediate window so you can edit if and choose what ...
Ulysses Mobile is released
3/9/2016
The anticipated update for Ulysses on iOS -- Ulysses Mobile v2.5 -- is available on the App Store. The app is now universal for all iOS devices, iPhone, iPad, iPad Pro. After a few minutes with it ...
The Most Dangerous Writing App
3/1/2016
Manfred Kuehn happened to recently discuss an offsetting opinion (slowing down your writing) at Taking Note

Austhink - switch and bait.
2/29/2016
I've used Flying Logic Pro for a long time and find it highly useful. It is on a very slow development cycle -- but I don't think there's much that needs to be enhanced, either. The developers are...

Virtual machines for CRIMPers
2/26/2016
Windows under Parallels can see the entire OS X file system (this is handled by Parallels and is configurable). I keep all data (except ConnectedText, see below) on the Mac side because I don't want ...
Virtual machines for CRIMPers
2/25/2016
I run a Windows 10 VM on my Mac Book Air, under Parallels 11. It's up and active about 10 hours a day, and has been for years. Generally stable. It is a full-fledged Windows instance -- I run Offi...
iThoughtsX -- iThoughts on the desktop
2/25/2016
There's an update to iThoughtsX (Mac App Store) that supports importing Scapple and CMAP documents.
Circus Ponies suddenly ceased business
2/22/2016
No doubt Circus Ponies is a very good outliner and very good piece of software -- it fell on hard times, and now, lamentably, it is exiting the stage for reasons only the owner knows for sure. So, mo...
I won't pretend to understand the original posting, but if "clone" is defined (as I think it is, above) as " 'a preview able content inclusion' (sic) of [a] topic inside of a whole other section" then...
Circus Ponies suddenly ceased business
2/19/2016
With jaw-dropping gall, the owner of Circus Ponies sent an email today to purchasers of the product (I am one) to announce "If you're using NoteBook 3 and want to keep running NoteBook for as long as ...
Scrivener for mobile?
2/17/2016
Interesting discussion here with Keith Blount, a few weeks back. Hints that Scrivener iOS is almost feature complete -- and improvements in Scrivener 3 for desktop. Not surprisingly, sync is the maj...
An alternative to Circus Ponies Notebook
2/16/2016
GrowlyNotes -- what's not to like with cheap software that is full featured and named after Peaches the parrot. The author, Chris Mason, has a dozen other OS X apps on offer -- all of which are free....
An alternative to Circus Ponies Notebook

Curio is definitely #1 on my list. When CPN had serious problems with its iOS app a few years ago, I migrated my work to Curio -- because Curio's integration with Evernote was, at the time, the most ...
