EssentialPIM on BitsduJour
7/24/2012
Take advantage of this interesting deal while it's on, fellow CRIMPers! The reason? EssentialPIM (always a promising if slightly flawed information manager) has now gained the ability to synchronise w...
Using a PIM to catalog files and folders
6/14/2012
Fascinating! I confess I've rather avoided CT - tiptoed round it, so to speak, but maybe I'll have to take a look; for the Greater Good, you understand...
Thanks for the cross-references. I've gotta ...
TreeProjects updated to 2.7
6/14/2012
Yaroslav has just updated TreeProjects to version 2.7, introducing more columns for the list view(s) - plural because you can use them in ALL list views, including e.g. searches. Neat! He's made the c...
Using a PIM to catalog files and folders

This is something that good ole' Smereka TreeProjects does as well - very fast, and with full-text indexing as well (at least of file types it recognises). And images!
Cheers,
Bill

Very interesting - nope, never 'eard of it. I shall check it out forthwith!

CintaNotes half off...
6/7/2012
Yes, I'm a bit like Stephen. I actually love CintaNotes, because its combination of hot keys, simplicity, "just enough" rich text and search/tagging is very impressive. But I also use Evernote and One...
Awesome Note or Daily Notes for iPad2?
5/28/2012
Yes, good point, Steve. This is where note-taking apps that have a desktop equivalent really shine (e.g. Notebooks on iOS and on MacOS, Evernote, OneNote etc.), but it's also where text notes are usef...
Awesome Note or Daily Notes for iPad2?
5/28/2012
Hi Ken,
First, I'm really sorry to hear about your illness - sounds very debilitating.
On the positive side, I have to say that once you start using your iPad in anger, you realise it's vastly super...
AllMyNotes on BitsDuJour
5/25/2012
Just a quickie to note that BitsDuJour has a **freebie** deal for AllMyNotes (in preparation for version 3.0, no doubt, which will include network synchronisation).
Also a nice cheap deal for the rat...
Mind mapping vs. Venn diagrams
5/23/2012
Sorry, forgot to include a link to Mindo: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mindo/id355182443?mt=8
It's not immediately obvious how to do some stuff in it, but once you get the hang, it's remarkably pow...
Mind mapping vs. Venn diagrams
5/23/2012
I'd also point out that e.g. Mindo on the iPad allows you to draw boxes round mindmapped nodes, kind of enclosing them in larger fields. It's not quite the same as Venn diagrams, but for brainstorming...
Yes, I had very high hopes of Everdesk, after playing with it some years ago. I've had a really good bashing of the tyres of the latest version, and while the concept is still impressive, I'm not over...
Inspiration Maps for the iPad
5/18/2012
You're right, Inspiration is/was a wonderful application on Windows (and Mac). But I'm most disappointed that the iOS app isn't desktop-compatible - seems a weird decision. I've still acquired it, of ...
Hi folks, sorry, been a bit busy. On List Master - you can embed lists to more or less any level, I believe, but it doesn't have a conventional outliner "tree". But each list can contain other lists (...
Alexander - I've just discovered that List Master is also available for Android. And as a newbie Android user myself (nice, shiny Galaxy Note - magic!) I'm finding a lot of synergies with iOS. Current...
Sorry, for mystic reasons my acute-accented 'e' at the end of Tapose was turned into a question mark on uploading.
The ex-Microsoft team produce something called "Tapose" (with an accent on the 'e')....
Yo' welcome, Other Bill,
And Alexander: yes, ListPro does run on iPad, but it's horrible. It's also horrible on the iPhone, in fact, but on the iPad it's particularly horrible because it makes no eff...
Hi there, other Bill! Yes, as a matter of fact, I can be of some help here. I also am a long-term afficionado of ListPro, and have long bewailed the fact that Ilium Software don't have any plans to tr...
Liquid Story Binder
4/18/2012
I note that Liquid Story Binder is about to feature again on BitsDuJour. Does anyone have any experience of this? Looks like a fascinating program, capable of a vast array of different information-han...
mac/ipad outliner links
3/30/2012
As a kind of hybrid user - i.e. one who has quite deliberately decided not to go the whole Mac hog, but does use Apple devices - I have discovered some interesting ways of exchanging outlines and othe...
ConnectedText vs. Scrivener
3/7/2012
Yup, that's the one - Growly Notes! True, fewer bells and whistles, but very nice effort (and free!).
Actually, OneNote allows you to "Save as" a Word file (as well as a few other formats) - you can ...
ConnectedText vs. Scrivener
3/7/2012
Suddenly realised you may be working on a Mac - but in that case there's a wonderful free, OneNote-like tool available the name of which I've unfortunately forgotten! It's been mentioned in the forum ...
ConnectedText vs. Scrivener
3/7/2012
Hi Steve, sorry, spending most of my time "lurking" on this forum (too much to do, too little time to do it), but saw your post and thought I'd share experiences. I'm working on precisely the same sce...
single-pane outliner with fields/columns
1/22/2012
... and of course Sam's just posted up the latest version of Noteliner (3.4), which can now import tables (in CSV or HTML format); he's also added a number of other new features which I'm still invest...
NoteTab for note-taking
1/15/2012
An excellent editor/outliner for exchanging data between iPad and computer is WriteUp. The developer is very responsive, it's got some very impressive features (notably a powerful search function and ...
