The Perils of CRIMPing
6/13/2015
I would suggest you look at Teamwork.com as a possible solution. Web based with mobile apps as well.
I would be happy to give you an online demo as to how I use it. I am not affiliated with them - th...
Overcoming Overload?
3/19/2015
I coach a lot of people on time management so here are a few thoughts.
If you could get a company wide project management system going that everyone used, then no one would have to email, phone or wa...
Evernote again
1/26/2015
I was one of those diehard Evernote users who defended Evernote and I posted several times in the power user thread you referenced.
They they pulled a major feature I and others had put a lot of tim...
Sadly, it seems to have the same drawback I have with Workflowy - everything is in one big file. I prefer where I can save different outlines for each project as I often use these outlines as notes fo...
Need a new Outliner
6/12/2014
Tried Mind Outliner but didn't like that I couldn't hit the tab key to demote an item.
Another thought occurred to me. I have never really liked the outliner in Word but I haven't tried it in years. ...
Evernote will let you save a text selection from the web and will include date, time and url I believe. Not easy to import into an outliner later though.
Need a new Outliner
6/6/2014
I am using Windows 8 and I notice Noteliner says it works in Windows 7 only in XP compatibility mode. So time to look for a more updated outliner - one that doesn't freeze in my o/s.
I have tried Wor...
Need a new Outliner
6/5/2014
I am a speaker on time management so I prepare my workshop notes in an outliner first and then export the top level topics to PowerPoint to create graphic slides later.
I have been using Noteliner a...
how best to save web pages
6/5/2014
I prefer Evernote for saving web pages - usually as a simplified article version. I usually don't hit the limit as a free member of Evernote, but if I did, I would just go back on premium.
I prefer c...
Workflowy: Your Brain on One Page
4/20/2014
What I don't like about Workflowy is that everything is in one outline.
When I prepare my workshops, I use a separate outline for each workshop and then bring the outline as bullet point notes to rem...

I am constantly on the lookout for new, better software for my productivity. But lately, I have found my needs changing. Since I teach and train others, I need software that:

Search hard drive plus gmail?
3/20/2014
Is there one tool that will let me search both my hard drive plus gmail and perhaps my cloud such as Dropbox?
Google Desktop Search used to do computer plus gmail but is discontinued and Copernic won...
Trello?
2/28/2014
I like Trello, but I found it was lacking a few features I needed like the ability to track time and to see late tasks across multiple boards.,
I went through weeks of research, using free trials of ...
Hi Paul,
I often work offline on my smart phone and Evernote handles this well, just synchronizing when I reconnect. The webbrain.com service only works if you are totally connected, I believe.
So t...
I looked at the presentation and found it interesting. I decided to give The Brain another try.
I was intrigued by the interface, but the lack of an Android app is a real killer for me. If I can't us...
Looks intriguing. I played with it a bit. I liked the editor but could't find a way to work with tags which is crucial for me.

Managing Sharing of a Knowledge Database
11/1/2013
I am a time management speaker, trainer and consultant. I would like to be able to share resources with my customers/members. I have written several ebooks, but they are difficult to keep up to date ...
Evernote 5 is here
10/11/2013
I am a lover of outline software and a very happy user of Evernote but Evernote is NOT an outliner. There is no hierarchical structure and Evernote actively discourages organizing this way. Even peopl...
Scary, But I Could Almost Consider A Mac

I have been a trainer and consultant for many years in the business community. Because I worked with many business clients and needed programs compatible with them, I used Windows.

Markdown vs WSYWYG
9/1/2013
I notice several comments about some programs from people wanting markdown support. I had to look it up to see what it meant.
I had a look at it but it seems to me that it would be slower to make som...
