Curio 25 released
3/15/2023
Interesting. I keep being tempted to return to Curio, then backing off again.
But having been rather disappointed by Agenda's latest update (yes, it does now do multiple windows, but hey), I might gi...
'Notes' note-taking application
3/15/2023
Hm, that is concerning. MalwareBytes hasn't complained about it on macOS, but that isn't necessarily reassuring... I hate undisclosed online activity!

'Notes' note-taking application

The Ulysses-like ability to view multiple notes in a single screen is very neat, I must say. Would that more note-taking apps had that feature.
'Notes' note-taking application

Looks nice – like a slightly more sophisticated (with folders/subfolders) version of Simplenote, which remains the benchmark for ultra-simple cross-platform syncing note apps. Although I ha...
Update to Bike
3/14/2023
Agreed. I was just about to ask the great man to include something like a Typewriter view when behold! he did so.
It's a really nice little product, especially with the flexible linking and "pin on t...
Wow, that's an interesting use case! Never even occurred to me that HyperPlan could be used in that particular way.
Yes, that was my understanding, too.

Good grief, this is an unwarranted attack. Firstly, because it totally fails to acknowledge Andy's interesting contributions to the forum. Secondly, because it is based on a very narrow definition of ...
MyInfo 8.0
2/24/2023
Yes, I agree it's an increasingly important consideration. On Mac, we've got lots of options (e.g. Notebooks, Keep It, UpNote... – mind you, the latter runs on Windows, too!), but there are...
MyInfo 8.0

I tend to agree: Tana is frightfully cool, but it's not offline (yet – it may yet emerge as an app, of course). I'm one of those reactionary people who don't entrust anything of real import...
MyInfo 8.0
2/23/2023
I've just received an amiable e-mail from the MyInfo developer, as follows:
Hi William,
Recently, I was browsing my collection of personal information management apps. I've gathered it through the y...
You're a Magic Bunny, Pierre! Very impressive!

Brrrrrr – that is indeed a seriously unwholesome picture. Check out this wonderful Oatmeal cartoon instead... https://theoatmeal.com/comics/believe
Enjoy!

Outlining and cloned entries
2/6/2023
Hot diggity darn! Treeline is still going – amazing!
Heh, I didn't want to discourage you, sorry! But on the other hand, maybe you need to define exactly what you want this tool for? Is it for learning? Reminding? Giving an already experienced practitio...
I think we can safely say that this software is going to demand a lot of time however you do it.
One important point: There's no way of automatically creating this – you'll have to set up ...
This is actually a very sophisticated requirement – one you'd normally want dedicated software to achieve. Knowing a bit about martial arts myself, I can see a whole lot of ramifications of...
I make do with Apple's own KeyChain nowadays, which is pretty robust.

Upbase - lifetime deal
1/17/2023
Wow, I love Coda's search function! That's amazing!
Quite a complex piece of software otherwise, but that probably depends on how one sets it up.
Upbase - lifetime deal
1/16/2023
Hm, interesting. I hadn't spotted that pricing option (I'd been looking at the – rather expensive – Team option). Thanks for the reference.
We're also checking out a very new ki...
Upbase - lifetime deal
1/16/2023
As it happens, we're looking to upgrade our own wiki/knowledge management system, so your reference to Upbase was very interesting.
But I was disconcerted to find that while Upbase has some very inte...
## I bought the new Pomera DM250

Well, I agree with you about tablets (I use a very elderly iPad Pro myself), but my solution doesn't involve tablets, it involves cheap smartphones with big batteries.
So yes, a little time required ...
Obsidian Sync

I sync via iCloud, so far without any issues (indeed, at the moment, Obsidian syncs more reliably than Apple's own Notes product, which is somewhat disconcerting! Even though it's using the inferior "...
Tana?
1/9/2023
Always worth bearing in mind that Numbers does one-pane outlining (with columns) pretty well too ;-)

Obsidian Sync

Ditto. All desktop versions of Obsidian include a context menu option to "View in Finder/Explorer", meaning you can open your files directly in your local file manager and process them as you wish.
