White board software
2/20/2019
Not forgetting the cheap-and-cheerful macOS and iOS option, Numbers ;-)
(Actually, I'm not sure if it's an infinite whiteboard, but it's enormous, and you can import most things. It also has its own ...
Dang, Jake, as a matter of fact I *didn't* know that - whoopee! I shall go and play...
Many thanks!

How much data do you store.
2/14/2019
This is a very interesting question.
I am more and more wary of putting vast amounts of documentary data into any single database. That's why I use Curiota for general information gathering.
My Cur...
Darn, having just decided to give up Ulysses, I've received the promo e-mail describing the new features in Ulysses 15 (really!?!). They all sound rather enticing. On the other hand, Scrivener already...
Hence the concept of game theory. Something I find more and more fascinating the older I get...
I found this very amusing, since I'm engaged in much the same process. I've been evaluating all the lovely apps I use for stuff, and have concluded that the ones I really need are limited to:

Ha! Nice distinction there, @nathanb! I love the idea of soft and hard listers. I also love Paul's idea of "future as gestalt"...
InfoRapid - revisited
2/6/2019
The $99 version is the Pro multi-user version (so between the individual desktop and server versions), allowing multiple people to use the same database.
It's a really interesting program. I acquired...
Ha, fascinating insights, Graham. I am currently adjusting my own way of working in very similar ways.
After much thought and some experimentation, I'm dumping all the subscription-based apps I was u...
About Ninox Database
2/1/2019
As you say, Skywatcher, very much a small-business setup - but also very common.
Sadly, Apple's rather erratic implementation of Apple Server lost a lot of credibility after they scrapped Xserves, an...
About Ninox Database

Sorry, folks, I realise my hijacking of the Todoist kanban thread with news of Ninox's latest Kanban support wasn't desperately helpful!

Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again)
1/30/2019
More info on Ninox's kanban views (and card and GANTT views) here:
https://ninoxdb.de/en/blog/release-25
The kanban view looks pretty cool - as do the GANTT and cards views. You can see how they all...
Todoist to offer Kanban boards (again)
1/30/2019
Interestingly, FileMaker competitor Ninox (a German app) has just added multiple possible views to its already impressive panoply of features, including GANTT and Kanban views.
It's an increasingly i...

Yes, the ongoing hiatus in further development of Hog Bay apps, and the peculiar decision to stop developing for iOS (regardless of the open-sourcing of TaskPaper's iOS code) have put a bit of a crimp...
I agree with Steve that Agenda isn't a true notes manager (like my ongoing fave, Notebooks); but increasingly, I'm using it as a task management app precisely because you can manage tasks and notes se...
Sorry, Beck, only just seen this: I've been experimenting extensively with NotePlan, but have discovered some very irritating discrepancies between the iOS and macOS versions (not least the lack of re...
NotePlan is one of those infuriating apps that's actually really clever, and does that most desirable of things (keeping tasks/events and notes separate, but enabling you to link them together), but n...
Perfectly true, especially since you can install Linux on most modern Chromebooks. And then you could run Dokuwiki as a private app off e.g. an SD card (it doesn't take up a lot of space compared to m...
Like Steve, I totally agree - notes are primordial (as the French say). OF does have fairly good note-taking facilities, but keeping a separate archive of notes alongside tasks is something nobody doe...
Hi Steve,
You might want to check out Findings, which is available for both macOS and iOS. Dunno if it matches your particular scientific discipline, but it's a very nicely designed app.
Cheers!

Thanks for the new Mac version - I'm just taking a look now...
Cheers,

Dang, that does look interesting! Do you happen to have a Mac executable?
Thanks ever so,
Bill

Promising new notes app
12/2/2018
UpNote continues to improve: now includes support for Markdown, which it turns into instant rich text. This includes checkboxes (created using a simple [], rather than the more conventional - [ ]).
I...
