After my rather frivolous remark above, I've very much enjoyed reading this thread. Fascinating! What a lot of good ideas!
There is something about being constrained to a screen and keyboard that bec...
I love the phrase "eek out", but I suspect you actually meant "eke out"?
I eek out all the time! Not to mention squeeking, freeking and geeking...

Worth noting that buying an extra Pagico licence for another machine only costs $5 - a bargain compared to some licensing terms...
Pagico 8

Yes, it did tend to stumble heavily in its earlier incarnations, but as a team, we're now enjoying the stability and (on the whole) excellent interaction.

Ha, yes, I must say I enjoy working on Mac in a way I never really did on Windows (note that I still regularly use the latter for various technical reasons); I can't easily imagine going back, even th...

There's a lovely, little-known Mac utility that does something like that, and although the citation functionality looks a bit rudimentary at first sight, it's actually pretty powerful. It's called Res...

Looking good - I'm excited!

Oh, and just to clarify on the subgroups thing (not desperately important for our small company, because in scheduling terms we tend to share everything, or else handle our own stuff via personal work...

Hi Alexander! No, I haven't really commented on collaboration, but of course it's a major factor in Pagico's new desirability. We've only just started using it in anger, so I won't pretend to be an ex...

That's been my experience. What's more, you can get as simple (or as complex) as you like. You could keep everything in the Inbox, if you wanted, or create lots of individual projects, or just a few b...

You're right!

I hear you, Paul. And have to agree – I haven't discovered one single app that can act as the hub of everything you do. Although you can drag and drop a lot of stuff into Pagico; not just files,...

Hi Jeffery; yes, I know what you mean, I tried Pagico 6, invested in Pagico 7 (but eventually discarded it) and have spent some considerable time working with Pagico 8 before finally recommending it t...

Hey Graham,
Not quite right: the software costs $50 for a personal licence, plus $5 per extra computer (but not mobile: the mobile app is free).
For a single personal workspace, enabling you to sync...

Ditto, Hugh. I hadn't touched Pagico for about two years, until I was reminded of it the other day by something completely unrelated.
I've been gratified to find that the whole thing makes much more ...

About the timeline: Well, that's true, and at first I too was a bit irritable about it, because as an inveterate CRIMPer, my first impulse was to customise it to my own preferred timeframes.
But actu...

After several years of watching Pagico, unsure at first whether it would survive (given its then complexity), I have finally been impressed enough to move our entire team over to it.
Why do I mention...
TiddlyWiki resurgent

Dang! I've just very successfully distracted myself from serious work by reading this bit about Node.js and just having to experiment. And wow, it does work really well!
It also means you don't have ...
Write app from HamsterCoders

... and Write have just contacted me offering a fairly generous discount for a lifetime licence. So I've gone and bought one.
The code to apply is JANVAL (or JANVALUE). In my case, JANVAL was applied...
Findings 2
1/26/2018
You're quite right, it's so useful for answering quiz questions. Should have thought of that.
Findings 2

Another nice feature I've just discovered while successfully managing to distract myself from actual work: it includes powerful folding abilities. Headers and subheads automatically fold the following...
Findings 2
1/26/2018
The app for scientific/academic researchers, Findings (sorry, that's a Mac/iOS app) has been updated to version 2.0. And it's very different from the previous one - much more of an actual outliner, wi...
Gingko
1/26/2018
It's okay, but without a search function, fairly limited in usefulness. Shame! Gingko is an amazing concept.
Agenda
1/26/2018
Ah. I've been playing with Agenda for quite a while now - a very nice app, with outstanding support (with the novel concept of an in-app forum, working very well indeed).
The subscription, while it i...
