Sorry, folks, but for the time being, this is confined to macOS users ;-)

Life Notes is an interesting piece of software that’s now approaching release in the Mac App Store; there’s one final beta to go (can be downloaded from https://noteship.com/downloads/Noteship.zip)

The developer, who’s very amiable and responsive (as are all the developers on Outliner Software, of course!), has a particular vision that involves embracing all aspects of info management. Actually, the closest equivalent I can think of is InfoQube, although Life Notes/Noteship is nothing like InfoQube really. That’s mainly because of the ultra-flexible use of fields (similar to the use of fields in askSam, for those with memories stretching back that far!), which includes a special “spreadsheet” view allowing you to view notes by multiple fields. Life Notes also picks up tasks in multiple notes (like the latest version of Evernote), accepts attachments (with a very transparent approach to “resources”), and saves notes in HTML format, meaning they remain accessible even if you decide to jettison Life Notes – sorry, Noteship. It’s not the easiest app to describe, but my own beta experimentation (a few months back) suggests it’s very user-friendly (much more so than the broad range of features might suggest).

Many more details plus, of course, the beta at https://noteship.com

Cheers,
Bill
