Outlines Outloud
11/10/2015
This iPhone app reads OPML outlines outloud. That's all.

The voice is OK. There are very few options, but speech rate can be adjusted. Can skip forward/backward and...
Curio 10 now available
11/9/2015
I've been testing Curio 10 (and Curiota) in beta for several months and I'm really enjoying it. George is a great developer to work with -- he is responsive and patient and is very interested in what...
Looks like this is in beta and not publically available?
This and the other one you posted today -- GraphiTabs -- interesting. I'm don't normally have "hundreds of tabs" open in a browser. I'd be ...
"My Tool" (named) - visual thinking tool based on Deepamehta but much simpler with web export

Interesting. Reminds me of Cmap or VUE.

I reach this stage periodically -- a machine reaches end of life or dies, I've known that's coming so I've been migrating my work to a new machine but only bringing along the software that was needed ...
Hello, also

Sidekick 1.0 for DOS loaded from a 5 1/4" floppy disk, running on the same machine as VisiCalc and WordStar. I think I got more work done on that IBM machine with the green on black monitor than jus...

Alfons Schmidt's Notebooks (OS X and iOS versions) have been discussed here frequently:

I recall that CPN often had difficult times with the iOS app. It's seems to be a major challenge to pair an iOS app with a successful desktop app -- many devs have not succeeded. Got to be a very ex...
Has Smartdown died?

Wasn't there a Mac App Store update in April 2015?

"Automatic indexing of all sites you visit" -- interesting, but I didn't see a way to turn this off other than turning on privacy mode. Most sites I visit are not interesting enough to save, so I wo...
Notebooks on IOS gets side-by-side documents
10/25/2015
Bill, I'm shocked. I was hoping you'd be the early adopter who would tell the rest of us the good and the bad?
I notice that the iPad Pro in it's most tricked-out configuration is about 10-15% hig...

SmartDown for Mac
10/22/2015
In my opinion SmartDown is worth $9.99 but not $19.99. It has folding and does tables but does not have an iOS app. IAWriter does not do folding or tables but has a companion iOS app. The iOS bit i...
I work in big corporate (transportation industry and regulators -- not dot.com) and government environments and use a MacBook -- but would find it impossible to work with clients without also having W...
Folding Text always seemed like a one-man skunk works effort. I was shocked to see that there was an update in the App Store today -- I had given up FT for dead years ago.
The blurb in the App Sto...
Office 2016
10/13/2015
@Bill -- your advice about ripping out Office and starting over seems to have worked. The slow responsiveness of Office 2016 on OS X is not happening. (Yet. There's always a "yet" with Microsoft.)

Office 2016
10/12/2015
Thanks Bill.
I'm hoping this will fix the problem I've encounted in Office 2016 -- especially Word and Excel -- of the response to keyboard input becoming excruciatingly slow.
LOL -- kind of a "save-the-topic" approach to forums, similar to those odd "save-the-date" announcements for weddings

Searching attachments in TheBrain
10/8/2015
I was curious about this, because I recall such searches worked in olden days.
So -- according to the "Knowledge Base" for "TheBrain 8 Pro" (In reality, there is no product anymore called TheBrain P...

Evernote reinvents itself again
10/4/2015
Aaargh -- Steve suggested $10, not "10%". (Would be great if we could edit posts here.)
Evernote reinvents itself again
10/4/2015
Very interesting article.
Up above in this thread Steve Z. suggested charging everyone 10%. Even it they lost 90% of their users with a move like that (unlikely) their revenue would increase several...
The Brain version 8 versus version 6
10/3/2015
Sorry for the rant. At tax time one often wonders "why did I buy that" ;-)
