I just discovered WebResearch 3 Professional yesterday, and I’m so excited about it that I just had to share it. I try out all the outliner and organization software I can get my hands on, and this is spectacular. You can capture and organize everything you find on the net. I have been a faithful user of UltraRecall Professional for some time now, but this is moving to the top of my list. If you try it out, I’d love to hear what you think about it.
Here’s thr free trial download site: http://www.macropool.com/en/download/webresearch/index.html
Be sure to snag the Firefox & Outlook Add-Ins while you’re on the site: http://www.macropool.com/en/products/webresearch/extensions.html.

It will be interesting to compare Web Research 3 with myInfo 6 when the latter appears.

Very quickly will become massive, but can be broken into smaller databases, but then tree will become massive!.....and I don?t like find feature in its present form.
Some clever features though?..reminders, outlook hook etc. ...I need to put in lots more content to see where it goes but suspect ill uninstall…or maybe keep and use some feature to strip out the Info want to keep (into my better, simpler and smaller outliner system).

Reminders are a great feature—something I miss in Evernote. Evernote also has an the Outlook hook, but it doesn’t automatically save attachments, as WebResearch claims to do. I wish Surfulater had an Outlook hook. Of course, Evernote has the advantage (crucial for me) of built-in seamless syncing. I like the idea of having a robust tree structure (in addition to Evernote’s tags). WebResearch also seems a bit pricey: $40 for two (personal-use) workstations, plus another $15 for the Outlook extension, plus another $20 for the scanner extension. The free version of Evernote starts to sound much better to me.

Hi there,
A quick (slightly general) comment: very few (if any) of these web capture and knowledge management tools seem to support Chrome as a browser which is kind of annoying as it now my browser of choice!
