Apology for Going Over the Top
3/28/2007
Daly,
Only speaking for myself, of course, I don't think you need to apologize. I am sure all of us have experienced the frustration of software malfunctioning for whatever reason. I know there have ...
OneNote 207
Zoot
The Journal
Interesting question. I'd have to select OneNote. It can capture information from almost anywhere, has a relatively decent set of word processing functions, including spell check, provides task manage...

Here is my highly subjective opinion on this question: I don't think any program that has its outline discre...

One navigational approach has been overlooked in this discussion: Wikis. And, in particular, Connected Text, which may be unique in the number of navigational schemes it uses. First, of course, is the...

Overly "fussy"/complex interfaces?
3/14/2007
I would tend to agree with that in general. The reason I don't use UltraRecall is that I find the interface too complicated and unintuitive. Idea Mason seems to me to be a bit more reasonable, but I h...
UltraRecal vs. MyInfo
3/14/2007
Stephen,
I don't use UltraRecall, though I did purchase a license (CRIMP at work). I do use MyInfo regularly and like it a lot. Here are the features of MI that appeal to me:
1. You can keep multipl...

Phil,
You make some good points, but overall I have to disagree with the major thrust of your post. I've worked in customer service related positions in two companies, and I can tell you that custome...
A reality check please!
3/6/2007
Jack,
I'm sure you are right that we are beating this topic into the ground, but ranting about the bad behavior of a software developer to sympathetic people is somewhat therapeutic... Also, there ar...
Thanks for the heads up on this, Stephen. Are you aware of any restrictions or strings attached to this offer?

ADM -- Just What Is Going On?
3/5/2007
I don't think there is any defense for Eric Somer's actions.
First, charging for a beta is unethical in my opinion, even if you finally do come out with a stable version. The whole point of having a...
Whiz Folders Deluxe 6
2/28/2007
Graham,
Perhaps "overwhelmed" was a bad word choice on my behalf. It would probably be more accurate to say that I find the way the windows open in WhizFolders distracting. I'm sure that others have ...

Gary,

Beware of Knowledge Workshop version 2.0 beta
I installed it, used it for a bit and found several bugs. At that point I decided to remove it from my computer, but got an error message saying the unin...
Hi, Jan,
At the bottom of the home page, there are three boxes. The center box has scrolling news. The link to the beta download appears in this box. You may need to place your cursor over the box to...
So what happened to Idea
2/9/2007
Hi,
I remember a while back there seemed to be a lot of enthusiasm for Idea from Sycon, but no one mentions it any longer. I'm just wondering if there are still Idea enthusiasts out there, and what, ...
Jarte 3.0 Beta
2/9/2007
Hello,
This is somewhat off-topic, but we did have a discussion of text editors recently, and I thought that some of you might find this news of interest. The free word processor Jarte now has versio...
New update of NoteMap!!!
2/2/2007
Daly,
I think he's just saying that if you have version 2, you can use the automatic update. Lo and behold, he's correct, there is an update. Mostly it looks cosmetic, with a new splash screen. It al...
