Information management software for windows
10/28/2019
If it's more of a dump and search kind of thing, Evernote is still very good. It has its quirks and the company has an almost Apple-like tendency of "knowing it better" than the customer, but there's ...
Nice wiki system. With a single developer, no robust local app, and maybe not the right marketing acumen I'm not investing my data future in it.
I don't even need something like a regular app. If it ...
My first subscription software was when Evernote changed from it's brilliant first iterations to its current "let me explain you why you don't need this and why we're not doing it" versions.
What sol...
The Dynalist application lets you work offline as https://dynalist.io/download

Evernote improvements

I agree. It's not the most elegantly implemented solution.
The cross document search is a nice touch.
It's a good "OneNote" proof of concept but not super fast, not super light.
As a proof of conce...
Evernote improvements

Well, that's cute. You can download the trial from the download tab.
It adds two side panels to Word, making it act a little bit like OneNote. Pages are saved as Word docs.

TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
10/6/2018
Interesting thoughts, SmallDog.
Sounds like a job for plain txt files? Some markdown, some # and @ references/tags maybe?
As for organizing in TheBrain -- although I often know what I'm searching f...
Evernote improvements

That's really nice, the expansion to 1000 notebooks.
Given that notebook information is not stored in the ENEX export, I still use Filterize to automatically add a notebook-specific tag to notes. Th...
Processes not tools

1a) Mainstream is certainly a big help, but what delivers the biggest ROI for me is consistency.
I learned that through my, sometimes (en)forced, use of Evernote as a database for my personal life. I...
Everdo: VERY nice cross-platform GTD app
10/5/2018
I agree with you. I came to Everdo when it was in beta, back in November 2017. At that time I was running OmniFocus in a virtual machine on Windows and well....that was just insane.
Everdo is a bit ...
TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki

+1 for TheBrain
Not only do you have the spatial connection of "thoughts" (jump link, parent, child) but you can also link directly to other thoughts from within the note attached to a thought. Add t...
Evernote in trouble?
9/8/2018
Yeah, without a proper desktop version of OneNote my information would be stuck in there. No power addons to export, no local storage.
Evernote in trouble?

Been using Evernote since 2005. Seen its demise predicted often enough -- have shared the feeling many times. So far we're 13 years later and they're still up and running.
TheVerge actually jumped on...
TheBrain v10 Alpha is available
9/6/2018
As for TheBrain and a new version coming up... As far as I understand the idea was to get v9 to a stable release, then get it out. That's what they did. Instead of messing around with v9 they've now s...
Workflowy: Your Brain on One Page

I switched to Dynalist this year and haven't looked back. Import was super fast. Active community, responsive developers.
My nagging suspicion is that had Dynalist not come on the scene and developed...

Auto-saves to a Sqlite database in its own application directory.
Each indent can become or be shown in its own column (right-click → new column).

One big file? The one todo.txt keeps all notes in one file?
No.
If I would I'd probably use something like Excel so there are filtering options.
Like Paul and Dr Andus mentioned, if you extend the ...
