Need help tracking web pages
1/13/2011
Sorry, quick self-correction here: Website-Watcher, is the name of the app. Local Website Archive would probably be more relevant, and isn't expensive. You can highlight and edit text in saved web pag...
Need help tracking web pages
1/13/2011
In view of your requirements, Ken, I'd suggest using something like "Awesome Screenshot" (an extension for Google Chrome), which allows you to take complete screenshots of a web page (including the bi...
MobileNoter update
12/2/2010
On the subject of Evernote, those of you who use the latter alongside Microsoft OneNote might be interested to hear that the folks who produce MobileNoter (the amazing iPhone/iPad client for OneNote -...
Anyone else use XMind...?
12/2/2010
Being one of those sad individuals who obsessively likes to complete lists of things, I'm kind of classifying XMind as a sort of outliner. Given that it's as powerful as MindManager but FREE (at least...
Collaborative outlining

Yes, I'm anxious about that, too! There are a couple of serious lacks that need sorting out before I shall be 100% reassured: although the system automatically backs itself up, there doesn't appear to...

Sorry, Alexander, didn't see your question: no, you install the entire server, then access it through http://localhost (it uses the default web ports 80 and 443). It's very, very quick, so you wouldn'...

Actually, I've just realised that according to Steve's definition (in his OmniOutliner review), Kerio Workspace is not a "true" outliner at all. It uses folders, it doesn't hoist, it focuses primaril...
Anybody played with TreeCells yet?
10/15/2010
Yes, sadly it's currently fairly dreadful. And doesn't have a Search or Find function, which to my mind makes it outrageous that he's trying to sell the thing...
Goalscape

I have to say, I've had exceptionally good support from a number of German developers now (the lovely J?rg who programs DFM2HTML, for example, or Andreas at Telepark...).
ListPro for iPhone
10/15/2010
For those who care, ListPro has - finally! - produced an iPhone app! I've been keeping all sorts of useful fragments in ListPro ever since I owned a Palm m100; I've transferred it to Windows CE, then ...

We've just started playing with the really very impressive Kerio Workspace (http://www.kerio.com/workspace). For a piece of beta software, it's remarkably polished, and it's got some amazing features ...
Anybody played with TreeCells yet?

Interesting discovery, this - looks like a French developer has produced a kind of ultra-simple spreadsheet that specialises in hierarchical layouts. Bloody good idea! I'm just testing out the trial e...
Anyone else enjoying Freeplane?
9/29/2010
Do try X-Mind as well, which is astonishingly accomplished (although possibly overkill for those who aren't thrilled by MindManager). Oh, and it's free and open-source, although X-Mind Pro looks prett...
Information Archive Suggestions
9/29/2010
Interesting question. I've given this a lot of thought, as it happens (we have corporate records dating back to 1990, in a similar variety of formats), and I've concluded that the safest format is in ...
Evernote2 replacement
8/4/2010
Thanks for the thoughts on Evernote, everybody - I stopped using it a few months back, even though I like many of the features very much.
But I have discovered a few really interesting alternatives. ...
InfoHesiveEP at 'bitsdujour' on 02/11/2009
12/10/2009
I've been playing with InfoHesive since it was a beta duckling, and it's come on a long way in a relatively short time. Version 1.0 was quite impressive, but rather slow. Version 2.0 is a whole lot fa...
List-making software
12/10/2009
... although nowadays I tend to put any list-y things in my personal Desktop version of Luminotes (now free, and really very good, although tagging would make it even better; it's at www.luminotes.com...
List-making software
12/10/2009
I once found a rather sweet little list maker. That's all it does, but it does it reasonably well. It's called ListSquared, and costs nothing.
What's your wishlist for an online outliner?
12/10/2009
I've used loads of outliners over the years, working primarily in Windows environments, and while I've got my perennial favourites (the two that have lasted longest are EssentialPIM - the free version...
Personal task manager with graphic feedback
12/10/2009
Actually, Graham, given your idiosyncratic requirements, you might want to take a look at TaskMerlin (the tour starts here: http://www.taskmerlin.com/tour/start.aspx?lp=td1). Looks rather nice, and wo...
Personal task manager with graphic feedback
12/10/2009
Just wondering if a GTD application would do it? There are plenty of variants on those around, of course, including Chandler and a number of other open-source options (I'll send you a few links, if yo...
