Neo - probably not back from the dead
10/14/2018
The App Store says there was an update 1 year ago -- it seems to get a minor update about once a year. Needs another one. It is working, but has a lot of interface glitches on Mojave.
Journaling, a simplistic view

I don't recall mentioning my suggestions should take only 4 hours to do. Sorry. I hope your email is fixed now.
"Quick entry" -- I don't know what's encrypted here -- FileVault? Something else? ...
Journaling, a simplistic view

The AppStore says it includes the following. The app is incomplete in that it is missing the things I listed above. Although it is very fine the way it is. If they add an iPhone version I would b...
Journaling, a simplistic view

Thank you for the update, Steve.
I bought Diarly for macOS and it easily -- and as far as I can tell accurately -- imported a zipped archived of all my DayOne entries in JSON format. That checks a ...
TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
10/6/2018
Is crude language really necessary here to get one's point across?
OutlineEdit 2 is now available
10/4/2018
Probably due to recent "improvements" (or nannying) by Apple with Safari and Mojave, OutlineEdit 2.0 is lacking a feature that I found very interesting in 1.x: an extension in Safari that supported q...
TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
9/30/2018
Steve's got a good point. And every Friday they host a 101 webinar with an interactive session for Q&A. They've been doing this for years -- a commitment that's pretty rare.

TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
9/30/2018
I've used TheBrain on Windows and OS X/macOS for 13 years. Yes, very satisfied.

TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
9/29/2018
When that is my goal I use TheBrain. TheBrain excels at emergent structure -- a topic worth exploring as you prepare your approach to this.
A personal wiki might eventually surpass TheBrain's use...
MarginNote 3 on the way
9/29/2018
Looks like MarginNote 3 for macOS will soon be available. This week there was an update to MN 2 for macOS on the Mac AppStore, whose sole purpose was to enable in-app upgrades to MN 3. I use MN 3 o...
Blurt
9/28/2018
Blur as you type? I have a hard enough time typing as I type, let alone not seeing what I doing. Seems masochistic to pay about $120/year for the aggravation. :-)

I don't pretend to understand 22111's posting -- but this caught my eye. While looking back over the decades I would have liked to have preserved the "core data for [my professional and personal] de...
TheBrain v10 Beta is Available
9/27/2018
Starting a new thread since the last thread related to the v10 Alpha
v10 Beta is now available. Major changes: "BrainBox" -- collecting web clips and attachments. Also new export features: text ...
The Tinderbox Way 3rd Edition released
9/26/2018
Only if you use Tinderbox a lot and are interested in getting more out of it, is it a good read. Otherwise, you'll learn more on the Eastgate forum or by using Mark Anderson's aTbRef website -- for ...
Processes not tools
9/25/2018
That's an admirable objective. The mania of "productivity" and "organization" seems to be a very twenty-teens preoccupation and perhaps motivates a lot of the software industry (other than games and...
I think most of those features (all?) are still there in the new App Store for Mojave. In the right sidebar there's a choice of broad categories, and under the "Categories" see "Productivity". Or w...

Firstly, welcome out from the woodwork. Glad you decided to post your thoughts.
I can't say I agree with it all (or any of it) but it's an interesting point of view. Even though you have a mainst...
It's nice to see a report like this when someone reaches the end of the quest and takes the time to post info about the hows and whys of their decision.
Thanks for this -- may the CRIMP be with you :...
Teaser - Polywick Story Server

I have no clue what the last few Polywick posts about telling us.
Is there ever going to be real software for someone to trial? Not API references; not screen shots or self-congratulatory Medium pos...
Evernote in trouble?

225 million customers does not sound like a business on the edge of failure
The CEO's report does not contain dire news

So Numbers is now an outliner
9/18/2018
Hmmm, I don't think I'd call the feature "outlining". As pointed out, it's more like pivot tables in Excel, or Excel's filters. I've tried the feature in Numbers and you need to do a heck of a lot ...
Evernote in trouble?
9/13/2018
Zoho Notebook is a mess, I agree. It looks like a port of a iOS app (designed for children) to Mac. The instructions for importing notebooks from Evernote are iPad-oriented and wrong. Even after ...
Meant to write "if you do *not* understand JSON and do *not* understand how to transform..."
Jan S's suggestion of org mode is a good example of future proofing -- because it has a long history of having been future proof. It endures.
The key to future proofing your data store is to

Tinderbox as a task manager?
9/11/2018
Yes the menus in DropTask need work. If you are in My Planner view (the Kanban-like view), go to the menu and click the name of the project you want to work on. That will give you access to the Canva...
