x-whnb: dual pane outliner on Chromebook
5/16/2019
Great info, washere. Alas, my Chromebook happens to be just old enough that it doesn't support Android apps--or Halna Outliner would be the cat's pajamas. (The android Notecase still feels off to me s...

I ran across this Sourceforge project. You can find it at https://sourceforge.net/projects/x-whnb/

Standard Notes
5/16/2019
This thread continues to interest me. Is there anyone else with experience contrasting Standard Notes and Joplin. I'm moving in a big way to the Chromebook, and Joplin doesn't seem to have a web brows...
Subscription as investment
5/11/2019
I've done this a lot over the years, paying for software I don't use just because I want to encourage the development of tools I admire, and acknowledge the work that goes into it. It probably doesn't...
OutlinerSoftware.com misconfigured
5/6/2019
I was fiddling with a couple of Linux distributions this weekend. I got this same error message, both from Firefox on Live versions of Peppermint OS 9, and the latest Zorin. I'm back on my Windows mac...
I'm confused. The text is about WriteMonkey. Is your point that WriteMonkey has these features, too? Or is someone using IA to write about WriteMonkey?

One outliner for Mac, iPad, and iPhone

Try Csrbonfin Outlinersoftware . https://carbonfin.com
It's a little long in the tooth, but in addition to being a good iOS app, you can use it from a browser.
When I first discovered some (then paperbased) time management systems, it was a revelation. So naturally, I went overboard, planning not only my work day, but my home life. Calendars and tasks! I got...
Dynalist MindMap View
4/4/2019
Their first mind map attempt was jarring, with topics bobbing around the screen. This version is better. And although for longer form writing I prefer the outline view, I like the jump to mind map as ...

The Case for Using a Paper Planner
3/31/2019
These are just the kind of responses I was hoping for: some thoughtful experience by someone who used the tool described, the random delightful link (Batman is 80 years old today, as it happens), and ...
The Case for Using a Paper Planner
3/28/2019
I'm sure many of you have seen this (it came out in January of 2018), but it's an enjoyable read, from NYT: https://nyti.ms/2E3SIUq
I suspect it will resonate with many here. The overview:

Simplenote
3/11/2019
Honestly, I have got to learn to read the whole screen and poke around a little more before posting. Correction: tasks are available on ALL current versions of the app: web (I had missed the "new web ...
Simplenote
3/10/2019
Correction: tasks are available on the Mac, Android, and Windows clients. Not on iOS, not on the web version.

Simplenote
3/9/2019
I just noticed that Simplenote (on web and Android, anyhow) now offers to do checklists (tap to mark done) as a formatting option. It's still not as easy to reorder lines as Google Keep is. But handy ...

I can't say as I'm using it, but I just got a link to another video, this time showing keyboard shortcuts.

Folding *and* Typewriter mode?
2/23/2019
I didn't know Folding Text was free other. So I just downloaded it. I know people have ranted about Jesse before, but this is close to a perfect editor. It has a lot of the org-mode things I always li...
A few decades ago, all my time management systems fell apart with the growing complexity of my job, so I read up on various approaches. Putting everything in the calendar just didn't work for me, othe...

Trilium Notes - new note taking app
1/9/2019
I thought I bought that, but no. Mostly, I've found alternatives that work well with a Chromebook. But I haven't found a cloud based two pane alternative to Notecase. If I can set up Trilium as a serv...
Trilium Notes - new note taking app
1/7/2019
I'm a big fan of Notecase, and have been trying to figure out how to use something like it on my Chromebook. Step one: download to Mac and set up as desktop server. It worked ok (I had the right share...
