"South Lake" from the maker of Journler (alpha) (Mac only)

Journler was my first PIM when I moved to the Mac and I loved it. It was a shame that the developer dropped it as it was well-designed.

Phil Dow reminds me a little of Jesse Grosjean of TaskPaper, another program that I love. Great software, but doesn’t always stay with one thing. Both programs are fantastic, but at this point I am looking for more stability in a product/company. I use TaskPaper 3 because I know the plain text format should always be around and I can change programs easily. Journler may or may not be proprietary.

If it looked promising I would probably try it to satisfy my curiosity and support indie developers, but I doubt it would be a long-term solution. I do wish him the best of luck.
