Whizfolders Deluxe
7/12/2007
My slight irritation with Whizfolders, the reason why I'm whining about the price, is that the trial software isn't the latest version. According to Sanjay's blog, this should change any day now.

Whizfolders Deluxe
7/11/2007
Anyone have any views on Whizfolders Deluxe? Is it worth the price? Double the price of Whizfolders Pro, $80 seems a bit steep to me.
I'm evaluating the v 5.6.3 Pro trial as a place to compose short...

Web Research -->> WOW!
7/5/2007
For anyone interested in perfect web capture:
I've collected what must be a couple of gb of data since I started using Scrapbook a couple of years ago. I take it for granted that every web page copy,...
Web Research -->> WOW!

Well said, Graham. Let's keep this forum a friendly place.

Graham, Alexander
I'm not sure that jumping from one program to another is just a bad case of CRIMP or an act of self-indulgence or procrastination or an ultimately frivolous delight in novelty etc. ...
Kyle
Thanks for responding here. My apologies. I should have contacted you first before shooting off here.
Yesterday something did go wrong. I reinstalled UR today and it's been fine so far. It may ...
Ken
Since trying out PIM software is very much a guilty pleasure for me these days, the fact that UR crashed within five minutes of setting up a new database was doubly irritating. I shouldn't have b...
I've been using both of these for years. Recommend them highly.

I have to chime in here and say that I'm not particularly impressed by Ultra Recall. I tried it late last year and didn't see anything that special. OneNote and EverNote seemed much more innovative, m...
Small software tightly connected
3/31/2007
Just as a slight riposte to the big software enthusiasts, I thought I'd mention two applications which don't do *everything*, but, IMHO, do what they say they're going to do particularly well:
Notezi...
If I really had to, I could probably get much of my work done using just firefox - as long as I had the right addons. I'm completely dependent on scrapbook to save complete webpages and pdf files, hig...
DTSearch and Archivarius again
1/4/2007
My New Year's resolution is to stick with software which works for me. So, Graham, thanks for the tip to Woody's Search engine guide, but I think I'll be giving it a miss and sticking with DTSearch.

DTSearch and Archivarius again

Graham
Glad you've found a good solution. I mentioned this thread to a friend and she recommended the free Copernic Desktop Search... I'll report back.
FastStone Capture - screen capture software
12/31/2006
Thanks for this, Graham.
FastStone is amazing. Amazing that its apps are free. Amazing that they offer so much that I haven't seen elsewhere.
I particularly like the Image Viewer's Wallpaper Anywhe...

I thought I'd stick up for DT Search.
Thanks for the tip re Archivarius. I'm an old DT Search hand - registered in 2000. Playing around with Archivarius, I agree that it doesn't compare too b...
Quick capture for Mind Manager
11/14/2006
I thought I'd use OneNote 2007 to keep spur-of-the-moment notes, but haven't. I think it's because when I go to review, say, a one-line note, it seems lost in the great expanse of a OneNote page.
I'm...

Sorry, I missed your earlier note. I don't use Outlook or Zoot so can't say whether what you say below will work. But everything else about Quick Notes Plus is pretty good so, yes, I'm sure it...

I agree with everything you've said about capturing ideas on the hoof. I've spent far too long trying to figure out how to do this without breaking my stride, stopping the sense of flow I get w...
