Steve, thanks; interestingly, Zoot was the program I originally had in mind, though I have since decided it is overkill for such work.

Eduardo, the change log is indeed impressive, as is the imagery. One point of concern from my prior testing of Connected Text (I will be happy to test this version as soon as I get my PC cleaned up ag...
Why do you CRIMP?

Jack,
You hit the nail on the head! My own quest for the holy grail(s) in personal information management --and most recently collaborative applications too- goes hand in hand with my quest for bette...

Foolness,
I guess most of us here have our personal favourite applications --perhaps because our brains work a bit like their respective developers- but I have yet to find someone who swears by any t...

Thanks Foolness, very interesting.

I think the OutlinerSoftware title is misguiding, as we discuss many non-outline related information management software here. At the same time there are several reasons for the name:

Outlinig in "swimlanes" ?
9/22/2011
From the images and my limited comprehension of German, Normfall Manager's swimlanes approach looks quite similar to the 'corkboard' feature encountered in several programs aimed at writers, like Writ...
I have to say that the conbination of status updates and daily reporting is the closest I've ever got to keeping a journal. It's only been a few days, but it is very convenient, so I expect it to be a...
Thanks; this is useful.
I think I'm quite spoilt into expecting all Windows applications to provide multiple access to commands, i.e. via the drop-down menu, in-context via right-click, toolbar icons...
Impressive; the tag index is actually hierarchical. Considering that the program's development dates back to 2007, this looks like considerable forward-thinking. Quite the opposite can be said for Deb...

P.S. I'm currently trying out the following: I created a Yammer account where I post short status updates of my work; I have set Yammer up to mail me a daily digest with all my postings. Let's see how...

I do suggest that you try out the Writing Outliner Word add-in http://writingoutliner.com/ if you haven't done so already.
