Ulysses version 18 in beta
9/6/2019
Ulysses 18 sounds interesting for people who do not want to be locked into iCloud, but there's another side to the story that that blog posting doesn't address. "Markdown XL" and the other features m...
Several centuries ago, when I was in grad school, it was the rage to use decks of Hollerith cards for note taking. One would manually punch the cards (not using the standard mechanical punching mach...
Without going into the "how-to" details, that site suggests that a disciplined approach to creating, storing, and distributing snippets of "information" in a corporate environment is a good thing. (...
Cornell method over here, too. In GoodNotes and other software I used my own custom Cornell-Note templates by default, for each note page.

Note talking is a very common topic in this forum, isn't it, and a very common reason to use outliners?

MS Teams & Planner
8/31/2019
Possibly worth noting that Teams is replacing Skype for Business (online) in approximately two years.

MS Teams & Planner
8/28/2019
An organization I support is in the beginning stages of deploying Teams (and Planner). Planner is team-oriented. The members of a team in Teams can use planner. It's not used as a personal planni...
Notion.io is my new favorite
8/18/2019
That is a really nasty policy. Goodbye Notion.
I favor Dynalist's policy. Under "Data Ownership":
"You own the data you put into Dynalist. By putting your information into Dynalist, you do not gr...

Thanks. Worth trialing the beta. If they get to adding the "import your Kindle highlights" feature, that would be very useful.

Update on "nvUltra" development status from one of the developers
https://brettterpstra.com/2019/08/07/your-august-nvultra-update/
It looks interesting, but not compellingly so. Will need to see t...
Interesting app with strange name
8/1/2019
Tenniarb == Brain Net
Reverse the name.
Interesting that the AppStore has something on offer for a developer that has no web presence. I would have thought that would not meet standards, but how wo...
Fast Software, the Best Software
7/30/2019
I read the Craig Mod piece, and a lot of blogosphere and commentariat responses, and came away thinking "yes, but...". Mod focuses his ire at a bundle of software that are completely unrelated in in...
Bookends Replacement Needed
7/29/2019
I own but haven’t used Bookends recently. Could you share why you want to replace it? Is it no longer supported?
From where I sit, office apps (specifically Office -- as in Microsoft) are far from waning. My gov't clients eat this stuff up and churn out .docx .pptx .xlsx as fast as they can. The billions spent...

Notebooks 2.0 now available for macOS

He's a good guy. Worth the investment just to keep the effort going.

Notebooks 2.0 now available for macOS
7/11/2019
OK, it's great to see v2 arrived, but a few quibbles. The website says that v2 is an "upgrade" but there's no upgrade fee. Just $39 for v2 and that's that. I notice that on the App Store it's $35...
"Hook" app now on sale
7/6/2019
Starting a new thread on "Hook" since the original thread was diverted into numerous unrelated topics. This app is now on sale -- official launch is July 10 2019 I believe:

Stanford's Protege for OWL

I believe the last version of TheBrain that offered this HTML export feature was v8. The software is now on v10. TheBrain seems to have abandoned their pre-v9 export features entirely.

Thanks. Agenda is a nicely designed app. The release notice sent to subscribers hinted that Apple Pencil will be supported in Agenda on iPads after ipadOS 13 is released -- which will support addin...
Capstone: a tablet for thinking

Very interesting. The features in the main demo video remind me of similar features in ZoomNotes, on iOS and macOS.
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa
6/21/2019
I'm pretty sure the only integration DropTask/Ayoa has had with calendars is with Google Calendar. That's what I use, which is fine -- I just display that integrated calendar with my calendar app. ...
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa

@Jeffrey Smith -- just a thought, but if clearing caches and cookies doesn't resolve the problems you're having with settings for the subscription, you could do all of that on their iPad version, if t...
Thank you Simon -- I see the distinction. Finder is an excellent document repository and Foxtrot supports that use case very well.
I prefer working in DEVONthink even when just doing repository work...
I'm not grasping how Foxtrot is a DEVONthink replacement. Foxtrot is discovery (seach, etc.) on steroids for whatever is in the target volume indexed by Foxtrot. DEVONthink is limited to whatever i...
