MyInfo 3.59 released
1/17/2007
I use MyInfo to complement Zoot. We all know Zoot's limitations, and MyInfo handles those tasks that Zoot can't fairly well. Here are some of the features of MI that I especially appreciate:
1. Drag ...
What publishing software do you use?
1/12/2007
Franz,
I work for a publisher. We do not do our own typesetting, but farm it out to pros. Most of them, it seems, are shifting to InDesign (from Quark), and I know for a fact that it can accept long ...

Kenneth,
I guess my new laptop is half toy -- maybe more than half. Maybe it's just an excuse to do more CRIMPing.
I've been impressed with Evernote, and the additions to version 2 seem interesting....

Hello, everyone.
I just purchased a new laptop computer and see this as an opportunity to free myself from CRIMP clutter. I'm going to try very hard to limit the number of programs I install on my ne...

2007 Predictions

Daly,
I think you covered most of the developments to be looking forward to. The one I do think you missed is the new version of OneNote12 (or whatever it is called). Unlike several folks here, I hav...

Manfred,
You are not alone. I find I do the same thing, and would like to edit my posts at times. That would be a handy feature, though not vital.

Connected Text 2.0 released
12/29/2006
Derek,
I have to confess that I don't use CT very much, though I admire it a great deal. It is one of those applications that you really have to dedicate yourself to using -- if I did, I believe I'd ...

Hi, Daly,
The Treepad Lite files (which have a *.hjt extension) are in fact text fil...
Plain Text
12/20/2006
Derek,
If you're looking for a plain text editor with a hierarchical tree structure, take a look at Treepad Lite, which is free: www.treepad.com
It doesn't have a lot of editing bells and whistles, ...
Other Programs Technology Passed By
12/15/2006
Daly,
I'm not disputing your statement, but I'm curious as to what criteria you use to make it. Are you refering to generally slow development, or to some key features these programs lack?
In an ear...
Back to the text file?
12/8/2006
Derek,
There are a great many advantages to plain text, many of which you've mentioned in your commentary. Here's another advantage:
I sometimes have to pretend to be a graphic designer. When I do, ...
I've owned a license for WhizFolders for several years. It is an attractive program in many ways, but I find all the windows that open as I work through a project very annoying. So it is interesting t...
GEMX do-Organizer Version 3
12/1/2006
TexNote belongs in a subcategory of outliner/PIM I would call an Information Packager. That is, it's strength is packaging information so it looks good. Another PIM I'd put in this category is TreeDB....

Knowledge Store Still Available?
11/22/2006
Daly,
ListPro allows for more sophisticated lists. For instance, you can make items in a list subordinate to other items, to achieve a crude outline right in the list. LP allows for flagging of items...
Knowledge Store Still Available?
11/22/2006
Daly,
Are you possibly thinking of InfoStore? It is similar in many respects to ListPro, although it only comes in a desktop version, and it allows lists like ListPro, or RTF notes. It is available a...
Quick capture for Mind Manager

I use OneNote 2003 on my personal computers -- not at the office (the boss has approved purchasing a copy and the ON license allows installation on only two computers). I tried to get a copy of the be...
Quick capture for Mind Manager

Another option for quick note taking, which I recently discovered, is Quicknote. It has a few features, which, if not unique, are unusual in a pop-up notes application. First is that it allows you st...
