I see.
I have used Mybase for years now and I was happy with it (still am ).However,I wanted a tool to manage my tasks so that I can aggregate all task related resources in one place. This includes emails, web resources, and local files. MB does not do a good job with this since it poorly integrates with outlook. I liked UR’s ability to copy OL items with a single click. I just could not resist it. However, as I started working with UR, I hit this severe restriction (for my usage) where I could not concatenate or append web clippings. It really amazes me how can features like this escape developer’s feature list.

So my over all process now starts from the task. Once done, I grab my clippings and do a final edit on them. This includes concatenating, cleaning, formatting them into one final article. This article finally moves to its final destination in MyBase.

To accomplish above, I use MBase, UR, Clipmate, and net snippets. For a moment I thought I will be able to do all in UR, but I was mistaken.

Both net snippets and Clipmate do a great job attaching user-configurable fields to a clipping such as date, time,URL, and user defined ones.

I will give brainstorm a try, however.

Thanks fo the reply.
