InfoSelect Discussion Interesting 10/1/2009

Manfred, I don't think we disagree. I think, if I were to give an opinion based on darn little evidence, that things are probably not pretty within Micrologic. What I was trying to do was suggest th...

InfoSelect Discussion Interesting 9/30/2009

I think you're right. It seems that Zoot, with all of its enhanced capabilities, especially with regard to email. saving and displaying web pages, an internal browser, etc., may end up capturing the ...

InfoSelect Discussion Interesting 9/30/2009

Yes, it is true that there is a backup forum. The chap who started it, though, made it clear he hoped it would not be necessary, and said he wasn't wanting people to join it now. In other words, he wa...

InfoSelect Discussion Interesting 9/30/2009

Good points, Julie. I use Surfulater a lot, and really like it. I also rely on Evernote. Since Zoot 5 I have looked at that software again, and am increasingly excited when I see what is in Zoot 6 b...

InfoSelect Discussion Interesting 9/30/2009

I don't know how many people here use or follow InfoSelect. On the eve of a new version of IS, its creator Jim Lewis actively participates on the IS Yahoo group. To his credit, he's hanging in on the...

MicroLogic Takes Over InfoSelect Yahoo Group/Jim Lewis Posts 9/25/2009

In a recent post to InfoSelect@yahoogroups.com InfoSelect's creator and MicroLogic's owner announced that the Yahoo group was now in ML's hands. Jim himself posted what was, the first communication I...

Scrivener-like outliner for Windows? 9/22/2009

I wish you well with the project. I am sorry it is tied to Word. Unless I absolutely have to I do not used Word. It'd be good to give people the choice of Word or OpenOffice. Daly Edwin wrote: >We h...

VMWare Fusion on Bits Todau 9/1/2009

Manfred, can you say why you found DEVONthink disappointing? Were you using it as a central storage site for all kinds of data of various types? Thanks. Daly

Mac Oultiners 8/31/2009

Hugh, thanks for the discussion of DEVONthink. It makes sense. Must say that the developer's web site, to my mind, leaves much to be desired in terms of providing a good overview, and making a rapid ...

Mac Oultiners 8/31/2009

Tom, thanks. I like the notion of Sun's free PC emulator. Daly

Mac Oultiners 8/31/2009

Hugh, thanks for your reply dealing with software for the Mac. You mentioned "DevonThink is the heavyweight data/manager, info-dump here, with Together and Eaglefiler as the simpler possibilities." ...

Dave, thanks so much for your reply. It was helpful. Daly

VMWare Fusion on Bits Todau 8/31/2009

http://www.bitsdujour.com/software/vmware-fusion/ Is anyone familiar with this program? How well does it work? Apparently it allows one to switch from a Mac to a PC program with no need to reboot. ...

Mac Oultiners 8/31/2009

The reviews provided by Steve and others of Mac outliners and information programs was very helpful. I am much taken by Scrivener, and it appears inexpensive enough that it is no real risk, if it is ...

Notefrog Pro on Bits du Jour today ... 8/31/2009

I want to thank everyone who joined me in going off topic and discussing the range of outlining and information management products for the MAC. This tangent is one I want to continue because it may ...

Notefrog Pro on Bits du Jour today ... 8/30/2009

Steve, thanks for the overview. I am curious why you did not mention the Omni group of products? Have they been outpaced by the other software you mentioned? Thanks. Daly

Notefrog Pro on Bits du Jour today ... 8/30/2009

Has anyone actually tried this program - and is it the way to "contain" info? My continuing problem seems to be trying to get program that does it all. Whiz Folders seems to be great for writing. W...

UltraRecall v4 update worth it? 8/24/2009

What nonexistent statement. There was a statement Jan responded to. He didn't make it up. In the best fashion of chickens everywhere, Kinook removed the evidence. It never bothered to apologize to...

UltraRecall v4 update worth it? 8/24/2009

Stephen, you have understood well the points that I was trying to make. Daly Stephen Zeoli wrote: >Let's look at what Kinook did: They announced they were ceasing further development >of Ultra Reca...

UltraRecall v4 update worth it? 8/24/2009

I remember a time when generally speaking questions were not answered promptly at UR - I was understating. Re my comment re Jan, I wasn't mean to suggest UR spent more money to prove him wrong - what...

UltraRecall v4 update worth it? 8/24/2009

Actually ADM was the first program I know of with a customizable attributes pane. ADM's presentation of metadata was far better and easier than UR's. Both UR and MyInfo have lacked on democracy in f...

UltraRecall v4 update worth it? 8/24/2009

I quite agree Sephen. As you know, I was naive in giving Eric and ADM the benefit of the doubt when he started to loose his grip on loyalty to his loyal and trusted testors, instead deciding to emula...

UltraRecall v4 update worth it? 8/24/2009

Mark, though not agreeing with all you wrote, I was willing to assume good faith on your part in assessing Jan's paqst criticisms of UltraRecall. Until I read your last line - the gratuitous, snide c...

The Economics of PIMs 6/7/2009

Neville, I'm glad to see you join the discussion. Your own product, Surfulater, has developed very well over the years. I am using it as my main web capture software because it does the most accurate...

ADM redux 5/20/2009

Possible, but not easy. There's no FB member that looks like Eric that comes up on a search of his name. There are lots of ppl with the same name who have no photograph. One could seek to be friend...
