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

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. ...

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

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.
Workflowy now supports exporting to OPML

No, the tree on the left, note on the right; the default set-up.
No, Fargo lost the inline notes, too.

Update, Kabikaboo is a very primitive novel planning program. Again, no where near as capable as many of the other tools out there. But free!

While messing around with Linux today, I ran across CherryTree (which I believe has been mentioned here before and has some pretty nifty features, particularly the ability to reorder paragraphs in a t...
My use doesn't quite match yours, but I use Notecase Pro for my overall dashboard. if you like the mindmap approach, Xmind is a good free alternative. It does some nice structural views that are often...
I just tested the OPML export/import with tkoutline, Notecase Pro, and Fargo.
tkoutline = error message
Notecase Pro = the right pane shows the correct information and hierachy -- but the left pane i...
Question at large: About Notecase Pro
5/12/2013
Notecase Pro has become the dashboard of my work life: project management, journal, drafting of complex documents, notes. I think it's continued development, swift responsiveness of the author, and ab...

I just spent a little time with Fargo today. It's seems an incremental step up from Little Outliner: a small one pane outliner with a small set of features. It does the absolute essentials of outlinin...
Lately I've been doing a lot of professional speaking, and find that I much prefer mind maps to outlines. Probably that's because it's easier to keep yourself oriented with a glance -- the spacial cue...

Yes, I like the idea of backing up everything FROM Evernotes to somewhere I own. Nixnotes is fast, and has been pretty reliable.
Your top 3 tools?
4/6/2013
1. Notecase Pro. This is my work horse: daily task manager, notes database, work flow coordinator, journal, writing organizer and dashboard. A two pane outliner, and sometimes I miss that single pane ...

So I went and took a look at this. Along the way, I saw a link to Workflowy, which I somehow missed when it came out.
At this point, I use iOS, Windows, Linux and Android. And suddenly finding a cou...

I too find myself using Evernote more -- again, ubiquity across iOS, Android, Windows and Linux (with Nixnotes). On the iPad, I also really like the PlainText program -- a two pane outliner that makes...
Mac: Notebook vs Notetaker
1/26/2012
I bought CarbonFin for the iPad -- a clean, simple program that I like a lot. It also has a web-based platform. But I admit that (as is true for most things with the iPad), I use it for lighter-weight...
THANK YOU, CHRIS!
12/25/2011
Hear hear. Many thanks!
I was fiddling around last week with CarbonFin Outline for the iPad, and found that I could export to OPML, then read it into tkoutline (http://tkoutline.sourceforge.net/scm/wiki?name=Tkoutline). I ru...
Notecase Pro does exactly this. A wonderfully easy outlining pane on the left, a full text editing window on the right. It does a whale of a lot more than that, too, but the simplicity of the interfac...
In the Linux world:
Jpilot for day to day task management
Notecase Pro for larger projects, outlining, textbases, notes
Freemind for mindmapping, visual brainstorming
Openoffice for final writing

Mindmapping
12/8/2008
For me, mindmapping has two big strengths: tackling a project (brainstorming approaches and topics to investigate), and planning a speech. Often, a big project will eventually move into other tools to...
