SlipBox for OS X is nice ... but there have been no updates since OS X 10.5 (about 4 or 5 years ago). It might be abandonware.

The introductory post is well written. Looking forward, also, to the rest.
I think Tinderbox should be on the list -- and will mention it to the author.

OneNote for Mac on the horizon...
3/25/2014
Interesting that in a bit more than a week, OneNote has picked up 1,175 ratings (as of now) in the Mac AppStore. Of these, 54% are five stars. Pent-up demand? So-so acceptance?
If This Then That (IFTTT.com) has added a channel for OneNote.

"easily integrates with the other latest Office applications"
I assume that means things like the "print to OneNote" driver.
So, the come-on is "you can have the minimalist OneNote for free, or you ...
OneNote for Mac on the horizon...

The Mac version issued today (20140317) appears to have essentially the same features and menus as the web version (onedrive.live.com). Of course, several things that appear on OneNote ribbons on the...
Agree -- MacJournal is an excellent value. Not as pretty as DayOne, but richer. Dan Schimpf, the developer, is always responsive and helpful.

Stormboard

Stormboard -- a corkboard style note board. Interesting to play with. Seems that any kind of export other than as a Wordle (which is useless for actual work) requires an annual subscription at the $...

This is good news -- thanks for the tip. My OneNote library grows steadily.
It will be interesting to see what "full-fledged" (the reviewer's words) means in practice. Neither OneNote on the web...
Steve, thank you!
Steve
Thank you for your very helpful post. Did you migrate your work to Intellect -- or are you in evaluation mode?
I evaluated Time and Chaos about 6 or 7 years ago, and at the time I was concern...

Sorry, should have recognized this as a Gatekeeper error -- the download is not "damaged". It's just not recognized as safe. To fix it, open a Terminal and navigate to the folder where the applicati...

Looks interesting, thanks for the post.
Over here on OS X 10.9.2 with Java up-to-date, the app reports "damaged and cannot be opened". Any Mac users here had success?

Looks like an interesting modeler with a workable web interface on desktop and tablet. Has anyone any experience / comments about this?

Report production -- two approaches
1/28/2014
Recent blog posts from Kieran Healy and Dr. Drang describing their respective report production techniques. This is at the back-end of the research-outline-notetaking-writing process and fine-tuned f...
It's possible today with webbrain.com (theBrain Cloud Services) to work with a brain in a browser on a mobile device. I do not see this as an Evernote replacement, however, now or any likely time soo...

@MadaboutDana thanks for the mini-review and reply. I'll check out the Windows beta.
Can TheBrain be synced without the cloud
1/21/2014
I too have kept my brains in Dropbox for several years and not had a problem -- but I never access them on multiple machines simultaneously. Now that I use Pro Combo I should move them out of Dropbox...
Notebooks public beta available

Two years later ...
The desktop Mac version of Notebooks was recently updated and seems a bit buggy -- i.e., difficult to drag notes between notebooks using a trackpad; some metadata (descriptions, ...
Hog Bay pulls back its iOS applications
1/14/2014
In fairness, why is that indicative of Grosjean's faults rather than Apokalypse's?
Having been a sole proprietor for quite a while, I'd report that it's not easy to "make a plan and stick to it". Ho...
