NovaMind Subscription
7/30/2014
NovaMind announces today a subscription model for its products, that it claims will provide access to products on OS X, Windows, Android, iPad, and "cloud" (i.e., a website-based client). Follows the...
DEVONsphere Express supports Quick Look previews - in the results list select an item, press the space bar, and a preview will open. This depends on the developer of the app that created the file to ...
Hmmm ... well, not sure I would use YouMind as an "alternative" to Curio either. Horses for courses. Just an opinion.

Not sure I would replace Curio with YouMind, though YouMind is intriguing and worth exploring. Thanks for pointing this out, @donleone.
I am attracted by the motivation of the developer(s) behind ve...
An in-depth TheBrain app-praisal !
7/11/2014
Stephen - in DEVONthink (I assume this is also true with TheBrain) if an external "indexed" file or a link is located on Mac A and Mac B at the same relative path from the root of the current volume o...
In addition to all the fine applications mentioned so far, there are two categories of app that I use constantly on my Macs. A shelf to drag clippings and files to temporarily and then drag into othe...
An in-depth TheBrain app-praisal !
7/6/2014
I use DEVONthink extensively, and I use TheBrain extensively. I suppose they both fit into a "knowledge management" -- though that category is a bit like the proverbial nailing jello to a wall.
I in...
An in-depth TheBrain app-praisal !
7/6/2014
It's also worth mentioning the extensive tutorials and use cases on TheBrain's site -- Shelley Hayduk and Matt Catan put up new very in-depth videos almost weekly. These explain all aspects of the pr...

Thank you, @donleone -- an excellent review
A few of my favorite aspects of TheBrain
- attachments can be internal or external -- they can be almost any kind of document, and new attachment types (n...

MarginNote - an iOS PDF annotation / note taking / mind mapping application recently added support for exporting its mind maps in MindJet .mmap format, which can be "Open In" iThoughts on iOS. An int...

Does anyone here who uses this new version have any impressions? Good, bad, ho hum.
Curio 9 Released

"holding taking" --> "holding tank" (thank you, autocorrection)
Curio 9 Released
7/1/2014
I'm glad to read that George might not invest time in an iOS Curio -- I think it would never be satisfying and divert developer attention and resources. (For the same reasons, I hope Eastgate also st...
Curio 9 Released
6/25/2014
Thank you, Mark and Steve.
I read George's posting and was a bit more confused than before. I wrote there that "... the thing I find confusing, even more so after George's helpful note, is that Pinb...
Curio 9 Released
6/24/2014
Two features of Curio 9 whose significance I am not grasping are the "album collection" and the "pinboard collection". First off, they seem to be the same thing with slight differences: floating park...
Curio 9 Released
6/24/2014
Mark, thank you for the notice -- and the loss of sleep! -- I stayed up many hours too late just to play with the new version of Curio ;-)
I have used Curio since its first release, and I continue t...
Freeplane - new release
6/13/2014
I'm a little confused by release numbers. I have Freeplane 1.2.23 installed (OS X). "Check updates" tells me that version 1.3.11 is now available. I'll go to that.
Ulysses III (Mac) provides a "continuous display" mode where the contents of multiple files are displayed in a single editing pane. Files can be external (Markdown or text), or internal. For example...
MagicalPad for OS X is available
5/28/2014
MagicalPad for OS X is available now on the Mac App Store. The author discounted the software 30% "for a limited time". The discounted price is $39.99, which seems steep. I've used MagicalPad on iO...

Daly, did you mean "Leuchtturm 1917"?
TheBrain fixes Freemind import
5/24/2014
TheBrain 8.0.1.1 was release a couple days ago. Minor fixes -- the most important for me was fixing Freemind (.mm) document imports. This seems to have been broken for quite a while. It's an import...
I like Stephen Zeoli's examples because they fit into a type of planning that I've been experimenting with - "if-then" planning -- which "studies show" is more successful than standard project or task...

Ugh, last year all four drives in my MacPro died within a few days. Since they were all born at the same time it was interesting that their lives we so closely related. If you have to replace a dri...

"I did have the problem with 10.8" should be "I did NOT have the problem with 10.8"

I've had Mavericks on my MacBook Air (mid-2012 13") since the first commercial release, and am currently at 10.9.3. The machine has 8 GB memory and a 500 GB SSD. (Since I knew I would use this machi...
