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

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" ;-)
The Brain version 8 versus version 6
10/3/2015
If would wait before buying v8 unless you really need it today. Their website explains the differences in versions -- I found v7 more of an upgrade from v6 than v8 was from v7. The basic features al...
Evernote reinvents itself again
9/30/2015
Either losing money or their next VC round wants better margins or both.
Maybe no more selling backpacks and socks.
Notes, Sync, Search: sounds like a pretty good focus.
NoteSuite discontinued...

The LinkedIn profile for Peter Tamte (President, Theory.io -- NoteSuite's owner) states:
"Theory was acquired by a large software company in Fall 2014"
Tamte reported to for Steve Jobs when Tamte wo...

You didn't mention platform, but if I understand requirements (1) thru (4) correctly, then Ulysses does these things on OS X / iOS.
Ulysses does not do attribute/value pairs but individual files & ...
iPad "Surface" -- er, "Pro"
9/9/2015
Convergence in Cupertino. I'm not in the market for a new computer, but I think at this point I'd choose to pay less for a Surface and get more than what the iPad Pro offers.
Marked.app 2.5 - preview notes
8/18/2015
Marked is one of my favorite apps for OS X -- a previewer for Markdown, MultiMarkdown, Fountain and other text markup, with some very good "writing analysis tools". The author, Brett Terpstra, is blo...
Interesting week.
IQTell calls it quits. http://www.outlinersoftware.com/topics/viewt/5983/0/iqtell-shutting-down
Wuala calls it quits . http://www.outlinersoftware.com/topics/viewt/5981/0/wuala-sh...
This is one of those YMMV situations. You're just going to have to try for yourself, with your own kit and networks, to see how it goes.
Go make a cup of coffee and come back, all should be well ;-)
It's never clear with iCloud sync when something is syncing in the background and when it isn't. I've found the little cloud icon next t...
I've been writing a lot of articles with Ulysses recently, moving back and forth between OS X and iPad. The iCloud sync has been "reliable" but not fast. That's not The Soulmen's fault -- it's Apple...
Idea Sketch is now Idea Flip
8/16/2015
And now Idea Sketch is Ideament. (Is an app that is regularly changing its name possibly on the lam ;-) ?)
Outlining, with folding, or graphical "mind map-ish" view. The graphical view does not req...
Transpose (formerly KustomNote)
8/5/2015
A long time ago I trialed an web based app "KustomNote" that was built templated notes (forms). It's been relaunced as "Transpose" -- better name, but has nothing to do with transposition. The site ...
As mentioned here before by Bill, Alfons Schmid's Notebooks app on IOS has release v8.1 today which add a wonderful new feature to "view two documents side by side" Select a document to appear in the...
Evernote is watching
7/31/2015
The Evernote web clipper in Safari has a creepy new feature: "Show Evernote content related to my web searches". The feature can be turned off in an "option" -- but I suspect that all that's being tu...
Wanted: Daily project logging app
7/28/2015
I'm a fan of TapForms on the Mac (for those interested in this topic WRT that platform). I use TapForms for the purpose @zoe described. Form create, sync to iOS, and export is very simple. Export t...

I'd definitely second @Lucas' recommendation of Tinderbox for this purpose -- but note that Tinderbox does not have "spreadsheet-like functionality" until you configure/code Tinderbox to have that fea...
Corkboard apps

I formerly used Index Card for iPad from DenVog software. It is now at v4 and is a nice build. I say "formerly" because I never think of using it anymore. Mainly because Ulysses on OS X and iPad --...
