New Ipad, what apps to put on it?

You might take a look at MagicalPad, which allows you to click anywhere in a workspace and start writing notes. It has essentially two types of item: a text box and a list box. The list box can have h...
I must commend Mr. Foolness for demonstrating through the use of "evidence of the opposite" that simpler is, in deed, better. Bravo.

Here are a few features that are crucial to me:

I've been going through the same evaluation process on my iPad Mini.
I've been trying out almost any app that sounds interesting. So far, these are the ones I'm finding most useful (but please read ...
Lifehacker post re uses of Evernote
12/6/2012
Interesting article. Thank you for the alert.
I find myself in somewhere in the middle. I can certainly see the allure of Evernote, especially its ubiquity. But I have a hard time warming up to it, d...
ConnectedText; any case studies?

Nice post, Doc! Very interesting... I concur with Alexander that you do a nice job of presenting your appreciation of ConnectedText in context (pardon the sorta pun) of your work. Thank you for sharin...

That's too broad a question. Both are nice applications, and which one is "better" is dependent on your own needs and sensibilities. Ultrarecall i...
OutWiker 1.7
12/3/2012
I tried intalling the program and Norton AntiVirus returned a "not safe" result, and removed the install file from my computer. Probably a false positive, but just wanted to put that out there.

I think I answered my own question -- although I have not tested this. But according to the web site it seems you have to download and install the myBase Viewer, to get this functionality.

Thanks for pointing this out. myBase was one of the first such programs I used when I was trying to find a replacement for ECCO Pro back in the late '90s. It used to have the ability to create a run ...

Black Hole Organizer?

Yes, this is one of the grand daddy info managers. In its early days, it was innovative. Now it is pretty unremarkable, but I would think very stable and reliable. It used to have a little gizmo that ...

Just noticed that there is a new version of Right Note, which adds hoisting, among a few other features.

TreeProjects updated to 2.7
11/20/2012
I sent an e-mail yesterday requesting an extension for the trial version, and I got the bounce back notice too. I hope this can be resolved, because I'm eager to give TreeProject another try.

Note taker accepting input via email

I'm almost certain that you can set up a G-Mail account that you can sync with Zoot. I've never done this, so I'm not sure how well it works, but I don't recall complaints on the Zoot forum about it.

My Curio 8 review... finally

... in retrospect, I wish I'd have thought to make use of the irony that the "ultimate" project workshop had gotten better!
My Curio 8 review... finally
11/14/2012
It took a little while for me to pull it all together, but my Curio 8 review is now posted to Mac Appstorm. If you are interested, you can find it here:

You can sort of do this in Zoot, but I think you're restricted to putting your fields at the start of the line, like this:
Distance: 3

iPad Mini and outlining

A note this morning to the developer of iThoughts regarding hoisting on nodes brought a quick response that it is on the list of things to do. Good news.

iPad Mini and outlining

Hi, Julie,
Glad I could recommend iThoughts. The only thing it lacks (that I've uncovered so far) is the ability to drill down to show just one node and its sub nodes.
I'm glad to see on its roadmap...

I just want to correct something I wrote about Cotton that was wrong. I said that when I tried to send a document from Dropbox to Cotton, it didn't work. Actually it did. I was expecting to see the do...

Ken,
I have the Awesome Notes app on my iPod Touch. It's a nice application, but it is a bit of hybrid with a lot of task management and calendar features, which is redundant to PocketInformant, whic...

Hugh,
Yes, I do find the screen large enough for the types of tasks I'm trying to do. The smaller form seems to me to be better in for mobile note-taking than the regular sized iPad (which I've never...
