Congratulations! How many people get rave reviews for their reviews!?
Hello, Jim,
Not sure if this will be helpful, but PhraseExpress can replace type text with links, either URL or command link syntax. I don't know Ecco, but if it can produce a command-line link to a d...
Jim,
In this as in most matters concerning writing, to each his own. And if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I pulled these old saws out of my UltraRecall adage database....
In my own case, I have alwa...
One man's "ridiculously over-the-top implementation" is another's "just right," I suppose. Citavi integrates several stages of my research-to-writing workflow and eliminates several other separate app...
Beyond the PDF
1/20/2011
@ Dr. Andus and Derek Cornish,
Has either of you tried working with pdfs within Citavi, which is newly available in English. It doesn't solve every problem of working with pdfs, but it addresses quit...
Citavi is amazing, if you work with bibliographic references. I'm still just learning it, but it is remarkably powerful. The fact that you can take notes and create knowledge structures is what I have...
In all fairness, Scrivener for Windows is still in beta. The newest version (beta 5) was posted today. They are also keeping a comprehensive of bugs and missing features at . As others have mentioned,...
Info Select 10 is out now
12/24/2010
And among the features listed as removed: "import / export (doc, xls, Outlook, Auto mode, HTML)."
Whaaaaat?! You now can't get data in or out of the program? Perhaps I am missing something about IS, ...
Evernote2 replacement
7/26/2010
I agree with everything Alexander has said about both Surfulater's virtues and Evernote's completely unbelievable shortcomings in some respects. I don't often copy Evernote items, but I have discovere...

Structured Document Editors?
7/13/2010
Dear CRIMPers,
Writer's Blocks and SuperNoteCards look interesting. I'll have to give them a try, although the former strikes me as ridiculously over-priced, especially for an application that hasn't...
WebResearch 3 Professional
6/29/2010
Reminders are a great feature--something I miss in Evernote. Evernote also has an the Outlook hook, but it doesn't automatically save attachments, as WebResearch claims to do. I wish Surfulater had an...
I agree with Chris to the letter. The shapes mostly just add clutter. They do help me read across, to know which icons are attached to which item, but that could be done much less obtrusively by light...
A bit off topic ? Archivarius 3000
3/22/2010
@quant: Thanks for the report on A3000. I have been using X1 pretty happily. I'm not a very sophisticated searcher, but it does seem to have at least some of the complex search features you need. (E.g...
A bit off topic ? Archivarius 3000
3/22/2010
Archivarius looks great. I've downloaded the trial and find it very promising. Sadly, the trial version limits the number of files you can index, which makes it pretty hard to evaluate, in my view. On...
CintaNotes out of beta

This looks very interesting, esp. the roadmap: http://tinyurl.com/yb8deq2.

I'm also curious. Are the tabs within notebooks new?

@bobmclain: Good point about the pissing contest. My sentiments exactly. However, issues of tone aside, I don't think it's fair to say that accurately stating the price of something is somehow out of ...

Your context, as you descr...
$130 ($90 academic). Still expensive, but not a couple hundred. (Just in the interests of accuracy!)
This is truly stunning. From the site, I could not even figure out what this program DOES! AND whatever that might be, you need to install Mathematica just to do it! Awesome! This is in a geek-outline...
Ariadne Has New Developer

I did find Yuriy's email and dropped him a note, so hopefully he can handle it when Ukrainian morning arrives!

Ariadne Has New Developer
3/14/2010
I cannot seem to download a working installer for Ariadne. The site indicated it should be a 2.3 mb download, but only about 1.1 mb downloads. Indeed, when I try to execute the downloaded file, it is ...
...due to popular demand.
Cheers,
