Debunking the "1,000 hours of practice" myth
11/14/2011
Alexander, thanks for referencing my post on benefits of getting an early start. Indeed, I believe many, if not most of us, may have times of days which are better suited to some tasks more than to ot...
Why do you CRIMP?
9/29/2011
Trader, that's a good question - why do I crimp?
Like you, I enjoy trying different software programs, looking for something new, a better way to organize information, and so on.
I'm aware that unde...

ConnectedText v5

Glen, thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
No, you were not the professor I mentioned.
However, your article on using CT is one reason I have long wished I could get my head around it in terms of ...
Mind on Track
9/27/2011
I downloaded the program last night and have spent a little while with it.
So far it looks most interesting; the way outline and mind mapping capabilities are integrated brings to mind Inspiration.

ConnectedText v5
9/25/2011
Am fearful to post about Connected Text because once when I did one of the professors on the list got his knickers in a twist & left - and he was someone whose work I respected, and continue to respec...

Having downloaded program, and played around with it some, can say it needs more work.

This looks very interesting.
Just a quick look at it now reminds me of Planz http://kftf.ischool.washington.edu/planner_index.htm
Except this program seems, again after just a passing glance, to be ...
about outlining ...
9/18/2011
Alexander,
Outline4D looks interesting.
I just downloaded demo - and can't believe my eyes - the trial period is for five days - 5 days, for a complex program.
That's nuts, and means no matter how ...
Outline within outliner?
9/16/2011
Dr Andus, I wonder whether you or anyone else uses Bonsai solely on the desktop.
Also am curious to know how Bonsai has been used other than as a task manager.
Thanks.

Steve, just occurred to me - given the strengths of Grandview, and how good it looks so many years into a post-DOS world, I wonder if you have any thoughts on why no one has tried to make a Windows ve...
Tools to work with lots of numbers
9/3/2011
A few years ago I asked if B Liner was still being developed, and got no answer.
Again I have downloaded it - it looks like it was last revised about 6 or 7 years ago. Unfortunately, it gives me the ...
Dominik, thanks for posting this news. I always kind of liked Zotero, but in the last two years or so when I have used Chrome to virtual exclusion of Firefox (or any other browser), Z was out of the q...

8/30/2011
I should have noted for those not familiar with Surfulater that it is one of the best programs on the market for clipping from and/or saving web pages. Surfulater offers folders, tags (which appear in...

CRPA1.8 beta testing
8/26/2011
Ron, thank you for your reply.
I think I had missed the debugging aspect - my apologies.
I will definitely try to work within the present parameters - I am intrigued by the program, yet to be honest...
ADM
8/25/2011
Periodically I ask around the net whether anyone has heard from Eric or Arne or anyone connected with ADM.
So, has anyone?
And as I have asked before, does anyone have a way of making a download of ...
CRPA1.8 beta testing
8/25/2011
I'm intrigued by your product. However, the limited trial version is too limited to really test it out various ways - and given the $98 cost for the full program I wouldn't want to make that outlay wi...
Some Reflections on Evernote and MyInfo
8/12/2011
I am a user of MyInfo, and also one who likes it very much.
Petko is a very responsive, and really open to new ideas. Sometimes, I also worry about his being a one-person operation.
His openness has...
Robust Outliner Software
8/7/2011
I opened qiqqa for the first time in a while, and was promptly reminded why I hadn't used it: the text in my PDFs has lost its sharpness. If I have to read for any time, there'd be eye strain. Mendele...
Robust Outliner Software
8/7/2011
As far as I know, you don't need to be involved with groups on Mendeley.
And though I am not sure, I don't think you're obligated to use their cloud. I am speculating, but I suspect one could use the...
Robust Outliner Software

Mendeley is much improved, and may be worth checking out again.

JB, I noticed you said you're quoting people from here.
Regardless of the legalities or technicalities, as a courtesy, I hope you are asking for the permission of anyone you do quote from here. The ...
Quant, your post brought a smile to my face. How well you've captured some of the idiosyncrasies of the people her. Uh...I mean the other people. Not me, of course.
Cheers,

Susanne, much as I like MyInfo, it is not a good program for dealing with web clips.
I prefer Surfulater. I've stopped using Evernote since I found I can sync Surfulater between two computers by way ...
