Good morning:

Sometime ago(actually way back in 2011) Dr Andus posted about liquidtext, an app for the iPad that allowed you to take notes on files on the iPad by selecting text, copying, and doing all kinds of really interesting things. It was a demonstration of an academic project. The software was supposed to show up commercially on the iPad, but time passed, and it kept not showing up. The capabilities of the software were very intriguing to me-I read a lot of journal articles, and the things that you were supposed to be able to do in this app fit very well with how I work. I kept nattering at the developers, and eventually I was rewarded-the app is now in beta. I have been beta testing it, and it works well. The beta is very solid, no bugs that I have found yet. They need to get some decent documentation, but it looks pretty interesting.

If you are interested, here is their website:http://liquidtext.net/ There is a place where you can send them your email address. I don’t know if they are still looking for beta testers, but they have some useful demos up on their webpage.
