MagicalPad for OS X is available
5/28/2014
I've been playing with MagicalPad for Mac for the past half hour and I've already found several bits of squirrelly behavior, including temporary lockup. If and when MP matures, it will be a nice app, ...

With me it's more like a moldy cellar.
Springpad replacement?
5/27/2014
If you use a Windows PC as your desktop, OneNote would be a great choice. OneNote still needs a lot of work for the Mac.
Evernote is probably the safest bet, as I doubt it is going to fold its tent a...
bullet journal
5/23/2014
Bullet journaling does not need be restricting at all, Daly. I've implemented a modified version in which I use the right handed page of my journal for the rapid logging that is the heart of bullet jo...
The thoughtful responses in this thread are Exhibit A for why I value this forum and its members so much.
Having said that, my response here probably isn't going to add to that evidence much if at al...
OT: Other MacBook users...
5/20/2014
As a follow up: I am getting a new hard drive for my 3-plus-year-old MacBook Pro, and upgrading to 8 gigs of RAM from 4 gigs. I've opted to keep Mavericks running on it, hoping the more robust RAM wi...
OT: Other MacBook users...
5/18/2014
Thanks, Paul and Hugh. For my older MacBook Pro, I think the problem is a bad hard drive. I tried running the Disk Utility under the recovery partition you described, Paul, and it basically told me, B...

Taking another look at Ulysses
5/18/2014
Doc,
Speaking just for myself, I switched about six years ago because I wanted to use Scrivener and Tinderbox. I've come to like other apps, of course. But if you're happy using CT on a Windows machi...
Taking another look at Ulysses
5/18/2014
Franz,
Ulysses III is very different from the previous versions. About the only thing they have in common is that they are plain text. Not saying that means you'll like it, but don't judge it based o...
Taking another look at Ulysses
5/17/2014
I would just concur with what Hugh, Prion, Stevey and Paul have said about Ulysses III. It is a terrific app. I use it on smaller, more focussed projects, and Scrivener for bigger, complex projects. I...

Evernote as a lifestyle service
4/22/2014
I know. The idea is so absurd that I can't help wondering if I'm missing something!

Evernote as a lifestyle service
4/19/2014
When I read some of the "lifestyle" type items on the Evernote blog, I am astonished with how silly many of them are. The silliest of all (at least in my view) is their new "Post-It Note" camera.
"M...
It definitely feels as if it is a tough row to hoe for the small developer, given the number of platforms that users demand these days. But I am encouraged by the success of Scrivener, started a few y...
Outlinely (for Mac)
3/30/2014
I wrote to the developer, who responded quickly and helped me resolve the problem. Turns out I had a corrupted database of associations on my computer. Now I don't and Outlinely opens its files fine. ...
Outlinely (for Mac)

Major update regarding Outlinely. I just discovered that it will not re-open its own files, so stay away for now!

Outlinely (for Mac)

I just published a quicky review of Outlinely if anyone is interested:

Outlinely (for Mac)

Thanks for pointing this out. I've been playing around with Outlinely for a half hour or so, and have come to the conclusion that this $5 app is better than 90% of the outliners available for Windows ...

3/18/2014
Ah, I knew there had to be a catch. I've been using OneNote 2010 on my Windows PC, which I paid for. I just downloaded the free 2013 edition, which was working just fine until I tried to create a new ...

I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, it really makes me see OneNote as a universal option. However, it causes me to worry that innovative apps like Outline and MagicalPad are just going to d...
DBMS for iPad

And just to be clear, my review of TapForms is for the Mac, not the iPad version.
