Scribe 2 - simple outliner for the Mac
3/17/2014
I don't THINK this has been covered here (or not by that name). The website is here:
http://www.pepperedsoftware.com/
and seems to be just one of two programs offered. Scribe first came out, or so re...
NotateIt - electronic whiteboard

My apologies, all, I posted a link to a mind mapping program, not NotateIt. The correct link:

NotateIt - electronic whiteboard
2/25/2014
Thank you. I just spent some time reviewing the threads. Many interesting ideas.
As for me, I'm still mucking about with Xmind and Notecase. The good news: I've just learned that Notecase will IMPORT...
NotateIt - electronic whiteboard
2/23/2014
This is a Windows only app, available from the UK. But it's a class of software I haven't seen much discussed here: whiteboards. Potential applications: presentations, diagramming, mind mapping, meeti...
Happy New Year fellow CRIMPers!
2/5/2014
I know. For many years, KAMAS WAS my brain. It made the move to DOS, but never to Windows. But it seems to run reasonably well in DOSBOX, although sometimes there seem to be glitches when you quit.
XMind
2/2/2014
I've played with using XMind as a presentation tool. It's a more interesting version of PowerPoint. The ability to "hoist" an image with its own subsets makes for an interesting visual flow.
little red hen needs help

Oh, and if no one else has said this yet, "Little Red Hen" would be a terrific name for the program you write. :)

Fascinating discussion, all. I find that I seem to flip between the two modes: top down (outline heading followed by development), and bottom's up (a series of small notes with tags). For the first, I...
My favorite setup is an iPad and Logitech keyboard (it lays flat over the iPad and forms an aluminum cover).
But I've also been using a Nexus 7 and and old bluetooth Think Outside fold-up keyboard (w...
Happy New Year fellow CRIMPers!

Happy New Year!
I spent most of my day fussing around, first, with KAMAS (remember that one?) on DOSBox, both on Linux and Windows. Wonderful software - but no, I've moved on.
Then I dug into Notec...
Meta trends - what have we learned?
12/31/2013
Yes, thank you, that's one of the things I wanted to say. I want things to be just complex enough to accomplish my few tasks, but not so complicated that I forget what I wanted to do, and can no longe...
Freemind Version 1.0 Release
12/30/2013
I used to be a pretty intense Freemind user. Then I moved over to Freeplane, although frankly, I don't use that much anymore, either. But it seemed to be a better further along than Freemind. Have you...
Meta trends - what have we learned?
12/28/2013
Fascinating link. Thanks. A powerful search is certainly important. But on contemplation, I have three more observations. First, although I want things to get more organized, I've noticed that it's po...
...and a very Merry Christmas to all

Hear hear. And may every one of you find the PERFECT software to manage your lives.
Meta trends - what have we learned?
12/24/2013
First, happy holidays to all. And thank you for making one of the most interesting communities on the web.
As I've (mostly) lurked on this site, I have observed several themes.
1. Information gathe...
MindMup - New mind map app
12/23/2013
The notes allow for a lot of formatting. What's missing: search, and copy and paste from the mindmap to text. But the developers are actively soliciting votes on what should happen next. God, I love o...
MindMup - New mind map app
12/23/2013
I just found this one, and find it quite intriguiging. Think of it as a multi-platform Freeplane.
It's called MindMup. www.mindmup.com. It's an open source, free, browser-based app. I've just put it...
While re-reading the help files (recommended, every so often) of Notecase Pro, I see that it has a very handy "autoreplace" function -- easy to set up, easy to customize, easy to use. Basically, a bui...
Mohio - mindmap your Evernote
11/30/2013
I stumbled across this one today, and wondered if anyone has fiddled with it.
https://www.moh.io/mohiomap/welcome.php
The idea is that by creating a visual representation of your Evernote files, you ...
simplesurface
11/23/2013
I agree. A nice look, a low learning curve, and an interesting new approach. I use outliners mostly for project planning and writing. The planning part would probably work. The writing - not so much. ...
Gingko
8/31/2013
Not bad. Lately, as I move from device to device, it seems to be more important to get to a file. That's Evernote's great strength. Gingko was kind of fun and interesting on a PC browser. But when I t...
Minimalist champions
8/5/2013
Lately, minimalist is the way I roll.
- Gedit. Text, word wrap, spell check, word count. Just about enough. Linux, Gnome text editor. I wrote newspaper columns in it for years. If it folded text, I'd...
Chrome extensions
7/6/2013
When the Chromebook first came out, I didn't find the "live in a browser" idea very compelling. But I spent a little while today looking at a couple of things that this crowd might find interesting: e...

Notecase Pro developer has always gotten back to me -- usually with the right answer, or an announced program fix -- within 24 hours.
