Structured Document Editors?
7/12/2010
FYI, I sent an e-mail today to Ashley Software, makers of Writer's Blocks, asking about the status of the program. I got this pretty quick reply:
"The new version has taken longer than we anticipated...
Structured Document Editors?
7/12/2010
The only thing close to this for Windows that I can think of is Writers Blocks. This is an application that has been around awhile, hasn't been updated in five or six years (maybe even longer), and is...

The Journal on Bits du Jour
7/9/2010
I have yet to find the perfect writing application for Windows, which is shocking, given how many more applications are written for Windows than for Mac. MyInfo and The Journal are both excellent appl...
Welcome, Chris. That's a very good way to introduce yourself here.
I would also suggest, if you haven't already done so, that you check out Curio for Mac OS. I think Curio is a little closer to OneNo...
Another option is InfoStore:

Information is stored in a familiar tree structure, but each of the nodes on the tree can be either a rich text note or a list....
Glenn,
Yep. I know exactly how you got into this mess!
Anyway, I'm not sure if these are what you are looking for, but I figure they are worth mentioning:

CRIMP is just a name we came up with to describe people like us who feel compelled to try out and/or purchase multiple information managers. It stan...

I guess the roaring silence about InfoSelect is answer enough to my question! No one must be using this once top shelf program. Interesting.

Curiousity: InfoSelect 10
6/25/2010
Just for the heck of it, and probably to scratch my CRIMP itch, I downloaded InfoSelect 10 beta. It seems to have some nice improvements. I haven't used IS for five or six years, mostly because of the...
MyInfo at 'bitsdujour'
6/21/2010
MyInfo is a very solid information manager. It has a clean interface and customizable columns for meta data. The tagging scheme is nice, with a handy tag filter. It has a tabbed interface for keeping ...
Cool fusion of two applications
6/16/2010
This is a cool helpful hint for users of PersonalBrain, which I just discovered -- although some of you may already have been aware of it.
If you want to build a database (i.e. "Brain") with one ite...
Twig
6/10/2010
Bob & Chris,
I will welcome any insights about Twig you might have after you've run it for a while. I can see how it might prove useful as a baby-brother Tinderbox for a second computer, but I don't ...
Twig
6/4/2010
Hugh, thanks for the heads up about Twig.
What a strange application. It's like Notational Velocity and Tinderbox had a love child! Feels like there are still some kinks to work out, and there isn't ...
For those (if any exist) who have been following my posts about Tinderbox, I've added two new ones. Find the first of these new posts here:

Wjjsoft's MyBase - New Test Build
5/19/2010
I bought and used myBase early on -- i.e. about nine years ago. I liked the feature set, but found it to be kind of buggy. I especially had issues with text formatting doing strange things. I'm sure a...
PersonalBrain 6 beta released

It would be great to be able to read Harlan Hugh's response! Can we get it approved? Thanks!

PersonalBrain 6 beta released
5/11/2010
Currently there is no problem using the same PersonalBrain database (i.e. Brain) on two computers via Dropbox as long as you close the file on one and wait for the DropBox sync to complete before open...
PersonalBrain 6 beta released
5/11/2010
I've begun using Personal Brain, which I have long toyed with, but finally purchased the Pro edition a few months ago. Four things convinced me:
1. The application is loaded with thoughtful and usefu...
How to digitalize data?
5/3/2010
Shortly after reading your post, I saw this application listed on Macupdate. I have never used it, and have no idea if it works as advertised, but it purports to capture text from your photographs... ...
So, what do you folks do?
4/30/2010
I've been in marketing communications for almost 30 years, and currently work for a small, nonprofit publisher. Copywriting has always been a big part of my job, but so has project management.

Edwin,
I get a page saying that the page I'm looking for can't be found when I click on either of those links.

Treepad Questions

Looks like no one is using TreePad!
I love the free version, a lightweight, plain text organizer, but I never warmed up to the paid versions, which always felt stiff to me. But, truthfully, I haven't...

Thanks, Chris, for the heads up about NeO, and thanks, Hugh, for the hint about checking the 32-bit box -- I was a bit perplexed myself!
