Agenda
4/6/2022
Interesting to hear.
My biggest question remains, however: does Agenda allow you to work in multiple windows?
And the short answer is still: no.
I've just been experimenting with another interestin...
Replacing Everything with Logseq
4/1/2022
Fascinating, @Luhmann – thanks for that. Yes, I can see how that would work in LogSeq, although I've not spent very much time with it.
I'd love to see Craft do the "block embedding" thing (tran...
There are plenty of macOS/iOS apps for taking notes aligned with audio streams (the best known are probably Noted and Notability), but I'm not sure about video.
Actually, I lie. A brief search has re...

Having just been playing with LogSeq, I wouldn't disagree. Embedding blocks (or even entire pages) has all sorts of possibilities – and, as you imply, is also bloody good fun!

Wow, just been playing with LogSeq for a couple of minutes – already rather impressed by the handling of backlinks ("linked and unlinked references").
It would be nice if it used folders, too, ...
I haven't had time to really assess it in depth, but it does look nice, I must say.

Thanks, Maurice! I assumed it was me copying and pasting Notes items directly into Zavala (I usually go through a text filter, but was being lazy!)
I've installed the update and Zavala's working very...
Just to reassure people using Zavala – I was able to blow away the file that was causing the crash by nuking it in the Library. I could probably have corrected it in a text editor (by remov...
Thank you all for your supportive posts! It's very much appreciated.
The angst, as you've all clearly realised, is very real. Finding precisely the right combination of low-friction characteristics &...
I have been reflecting, as a confirmed and obsessive CRIMPer, on the nature of task management.
What a cornucopia of wonderful apps there are out there. So. Many. Ways. To. Manage. Your. Life!
And I...
Roam v. Obsidian
3/17/2022
Thanks for the update, @Anthony – it's prompted me to read the article and take a good look at LogSeq (although their little questionnaire-thingy decided to assign me to the Obsidian group and t...
My Medium article about Legend
3/4/2022
Yo Jay,
Thanks very much for joining the forum – great stuff!
First – it’s a great app. But unlike other outlining apps (which is effectively what Legend is), it doesn...
Sorry, @Smithers, just seen this.
Similar apps include e.g. Summuray, Highlights, Caleo, OnlineObjects (primarily for web), MarginNote, LiquidText, PDF Master by Diigo (and that’s just off the ...
OutlineEdit 3 released
2/18/2022
Bravo Robin, I liked OutlineEdit before, and have already downloaded the trial.
But – important question, sorry! – are you also planning an iOS version (I know, I know, I ask you every ti...

2/18/2022
NotePlan does this very well, of course. But personally, I’ve found my preferred way of making rapid notes to myself is using an Inbox (in my case, in both Notebooks – for general info and...
He's going to roam from Roam
2/17/2022
Heh, I experimented with Roam a little while ago, but never built up any enthusiasm:
a) the UX isn’t great, especially by modern standards
b) the plethora of plugins/extensions etc. is overwhel...
That does look pretty darn cool (even though there are already very similar apps on macOS/iOS).
Cheers!
Bill
My Medium article about Legend
2/15/2022
Hey Steve,
I enjoyed your article, which I thought gave a very fair account of Legend.
It’s an amazing app, but can end up being quite confusing. After spending a little time trying to make th...
The Block Protocol
2/10/2022
Sorry, I realise I didn’t really finish my musing here: yes, I think this is a great idea, but there are a number of different “block” models (compare e.g. the Divi WordPress theme w...
Craft 2.0 - For Everyone!
2/10/2022
What’s impressive about Craft is the steady pace of development – it’s a rapidly evolving product.
That’s always the most encouraging sign that (a) the underlying platform is ...
The Block Protocol
2/8/2022
I think it’s a great idea. There is a plethora of (in many cases, excellent) software predicated on blocks – not least WordPress’s latest version of their editor in 5.9.
For block t...
Sure, no worries.

I use a couple: CClean (the new version has just come out and is quite good), OnyX, and occasionally TrashMe 3.0. I’m running on macOS 12.1

Respect, @Maurice!
Just a small heads-up; I’ve found that backlinks tend to disappear from Zavala whenever I run a general cache-clearing session (which I do fairly regularly, because my machin...
