SQLNotes -- a Plea Please 6/2/2008

Graham, perhaps beta users tend to be different from the average user in that more things are intuitive to them, or they are prepared to play around with it longer. Having said that, since writing my...

SQLNotes -- a Plea Please 6/2/2008

Pierre, I have been following the rapid progress with SQLNotes, and see the possibility that in many ways it may end up being the killer app, the holy grail that CRIMPERs yearn for. It will certainly ...

Surfulater competitor? 6/1/2008

Cassius, thanks for posting the info. ExplorerPro looks very comprehensive, and am somewhat surprised I haven't seen it before. The products the company uses in its comparison chart with competitors...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/20/2008

Vince, by the way, what are you using for info management on the Mac -- saw you IS group post, and realized you're in a neat position to be trying new stuff andm aking some comparisons. Daly Captain...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/20/2008

Dan, a lot of people have been expressing the kids of concerns you have raised. I understand the developers are well aware of the issues, and taking the stance that that is why the program is still in...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/20/2008

Re Maple, Jot, etc., I think they are essentially dead in the water, and in today's market overpriced for what they do. Unless they get new capabilities, they'll be gone. Daly Stephen Zeoli wrote: >...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/20/2008

Stephen, I have tried The Brain a few times. This last time quite seriously. I like the screen action -- up to a point, then it gets disconcerting. Apparently there are people with thousands of file...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/20/2008

Dominik, I think I may end up using SQL notes once I have looked at it enough times that it begins to make sense to me! This is one program where what I wrote someplace else about having a well writte...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/20/2008

Thomas, the nice thing about InfoRecall is they let you try the program each year, when like clockwork, they bring out a new version. They have some good ideas about workspace -- but for me it just do...

Rapidly Moving Ahead on the Outside Is... 5/13/2008

JJ, thanks for correcting me re WebResearch and Firefox -- you are correct, it is Firefox friendly. My apologies to all concerned, including the developers of WR. Daly JJ wrote: >I agree with most.....

Rapidly Moving Ahead on the Outside Is... 5/11/2008

Surfulater! Predictions in politics is said to be like predicting horseraces. The same could be said about predicting software races. I mean, 18 months ago, who would have ADM would break a leg in ...

102 GTD Tools... 5/8/2008

Hugh, that's one neat list -- so does anyone want to name the top 10 products on it!? It could be the theme for a crimper's convention. Daly Hugh wrote: >Very slightly overlapping with Daly's market...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/8/2008

EN3 update: I just imported all of my EN2.2 notes into EN3. As far as I can see, it went perfectly. I have not discovered how to get a list view yet on EN3, but am sure there must be one -- or if th...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/8/2008

Your note pormpted me to get off my backside and try the ne EN3. So far, with a minimum of testing, I am impressed. I thought it did a reasonable job with the complex page referred to in a more rece...

EN 3 Changes and a Market Overview 5/6/2008

I can't recall whether we had much talk here about EverNote 3 beta and the developer's plan to create a program that would integrate hardware and web, and truly be able to function as an external brai...

Whizfolders 6.1.4 Deluxe 4/30/2008

Graham, I just went over to upgrade WF, and looking at the new features found the following, which says to me that though WF is not a one-pane outliner, it can at lease give a screen (uneditable) view...

Omea Pro 3 - to be released 4/30/2008

This ongoing discussion re OmeaPro has shown two things: a) There's a product out there that has the potential of being the holy grail of PIMs (almost what Chandler was to be before it died, and which...

ADM on Vista 4/13/2008

Jan, thanks for the url. I got ADM working when I set compatibility for XP. However, it is the 30-day trial version. I have been unable to get my old registered program off the machine that crashed. ...

ADM on Vista 4/12/2008

Dan, thanks. I am in more or less the same situation as you are. I have, however, always liked the somewhat different ADM GUI, because it didn't look like it was designed by Microsoft -- it was uniq...

ADM on Vista 4/11/2008

I'm curious -- has anyone run ADM4 beta on Vista? If ADM was to start up again with decent capitalization and a different approach to management, wold there still be a market for it? Daly

GTD reflections 4/5/2008

Robert, I have uninstalled the program twice -- and each time filled out the info request as to how I found the program, noting the problem. Neither time have I have a reply. I am running a Toshiba S...

Email Clients 4/4/2008

Thanks Thomas. I have given Chaos Intellect a good look. Had a very minor problem that was more my ignorance than anything, and phoned the company. Turned out I was speaking with the owner. We got my...

Email Clients 4/4/2008

I realize I am off topic here, but...though much of my mail uses Gmail, I also want a computer-based email client. I have long used Thunderbird, but now am also looking at The Bat, Barca Pro b/c it ha...

GTD reflections 4/4/2008

Sandro, I installed uOrganized, but it will not run on my computer. Windows shuts it down, says there is a problem, and will seek a solution. I uninstalled and reinstalled, and restarted the computer,...

Task managers - what should they be able to do? 4/1/2008

Chris, you are right. GTD can be done with, or adapted to many kinds of software and/or paper planners. And it is all mostly common sense stuff -- one common sense idea after another. But the problem...
