Excellent Chris, many thanks.
Re cross-referencing; copying links has been good enough for me in this forum, I don't see any reason to not extend it across the two.
RecentX looks indeed interesting and useful but, unless I'm missing something, it does not provide a calendar view. Rather, items seem to be sorted by popularity.
The usefulness, among others, of the...

For reference, I post here the link to TuskTools a calendar view for Evernote notes http://www.moreproductivenow.com/evernote.html Thanks to Chris for the heads up.

Hit 'post' too soon.

Team solutions #1: Text development
11/9/2011
About Plone and such locally installed CMS approaches, I have two questions:
- What is the textual output of such a tool? HTML plus images? RTF?
- What do you do about collaborators not working from...

Document Management Software Question
11/8/2011
No text version as far as I know; OCR is just used for searching. An example is scanned (non-OCR'd) PDFs: you can search for text in them --for a Premium Evernote account-- but the PDF attachment rema...
Document Management Software Question

I haven't used any of the said scanners, but I see that they are supported by Evernote https://www.evernote.com/about/trunk/ (click on Hardware) as are some Lexmark models. I find that for receipts an...

I think mental fragmentation is a good term for it.
TextPad is actually very fast.
@Ken
Smartsheet stands out indeed; I had tried it out more than a year ago and at the time I was put off by the price. Now it seems to me quite reasonable; I'm not sure whether the price has dropped s...
First impressions: seems well thought out for teams, since tasks integrate collaboration in their core. It's indeed fast, and the keyboard shortcuts are useful, though not always intuitive (Tab Backsp...

It's not 'better' in the power sense, but they are not comparable programs. I have...

Just a note to say that I recently posted a short suggestion at the Cintanotes feedback forum, which I found impressively active, especially considering the minimalistic nature of the product. A few d...
Thanks; I've signed up to try it out. From a first look its basic concept looks similar to Strides (strides.do) though it appears more complete as a tool. As noted here http://www.outlinersoftware.com...
I should add to the list Asana http://asana.com/ , mentioned in its own thread here http://www.outlinersoftware.com/topics/viewt/3349/0/asana-is-out--free-collaborative-task-manager
