Overcoming Overload?

Thank you, Ken. The volume of interesting answers to your heartfelt issues shows just how important this particular aspect of outlining, or information management, or whatever else one chooses to call it, actually is. I suspect information overload is the main reason most of us are interested in ‘outliner software’ in the first place.

As for me: I’ve been using Ulysses for Mac and iPad increasingly over the last few days, and it’s gradually become my go-to task manager. Despite the shortcomings (and there are a few), the app’s versatility is truly astonishing – outliner-style hierarchy, plus multilevel nesting, plus tags (keywords), plus a powerful search function. Much better for my way of working that Workflowy!

But I do wish it supported an alternative to iCloud…
