Readiris (scanner program) for free
2/10/2020
Regular version (PDF 17) apparently free till 2/14 - see: https://www.irislink.com/EN-IL/c1729/Readiris-17--the-PDF-and-OCR-solution-for-Windows-.aspx#table-buy.
That said, at least for very basic sc...
To do list system to use and invest in
1/29/2020
Everdo is indeed a standalone solution - largely an offline clone of Nirvana, aimed at better privacy.
Another option which might be of interest is Leadertask (https://www.leadertask.com/). Its main ...
To do list system to use and invest in
1/29/2020
There are a number of Windows (or web-based) alternatives to Things which, though perhaps not fully equivalent to the original, can certainly give Things a run for the money.
Specifically, there is t...
Zoot
12/22/2019
With regard to attracting new users (see earlier posts on this topic), featuring Zoot on Bitsdujour might be a good idea.
UltraRecall 6.0 released
9/29/2019
Also in a 64 bit version - see https://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=5602
I believe that Ticktick (premium tier) offers this option, although I'm not certain whether the sync is two-way.
Also, there are of course various software programs which offer this option (at least ...
Great deal on Leadertask today

In case anyone's interested - it's available at Bitsdujour.com
Ultra Recall and webpage capture
4/4/2019
You can do this using the Ultrarecall extension for IE, or the UR extension for old, pre-Quantum versions of Firefox.
However, as a practical matter you're probably better performing a copy and paste...
I now see that the Everdo developer has noted some differences between Everdo and Nirvana; see his post in https://www.reddit.com/r/gtd/comments/78okve/i_have_built_everdo_a_private_multiplatform_gtd/...
Everdo looks like a desktop clone of Nirvana (https://www.nirvanahq.com).
Software for web clippings
12/12/2018
Another possibility for Windows users is UltraRecall, which offers two advantages which some of the other solutions lack: (a) ability to edit the saved web clippings; (b) proper handling certain types...
UltraRecall
Vueminder Calendar
Total Commander / Directory Opus (have licenses for both, the second is preferable for those who can afford it)
X1 Search
Keepass
Another possibility, which I forgot in my previous post: Hitask.
Possible options for addressing this problem include such to do managers as Leadertask, DoogiePim, AgendaatOnce, EssentialPim pro.
Also consider Todoist with its (virtually instantaneous) Gcal sync, ...
Apropos hybrid systems, these (inter alia) will be discussed in the new productivity course being launched tomorrow by Shawn Blanc, All the Things (https://thesweetsetup.com/things/) - if you're inter...
PS If you use Todoist Pro/Business, you can also schedule tasks for specific hours. Likewise, this software provides virtually instantaneous two-way sync w/ Gcal.
Additional ideas for hybrid systems...
You might want to try a program which integrates tasks with calendar functions in a manner which facilitates filtering by priority, tags, etc., and which has mobile apps - Essential Pim Pro and Leader...
New task manager
7/8/2015
Yes -
I tested it offline, and after syncing, the changes made offline were synced correctly.
New task manager
7/8/2015
It's called Ticktick (ticktick.com), just appeared in version 2.0.
It's multiplatform, accessible via web and apps for Android, iOS, etc.
Comes in both a free version and a pro version (comparison: ...
I have, and I was not terribly impressed with it: (a) resource use is quite heavy; (b) much, though admittedly not all, of the functionality it offers is available with other email clients, e.g. Thund...
askSam vs. Zoot? and vs. others

That I don't know - you have to give it a try.
askSam vs. Zoot? and vs. others
10/10/2013
Not too long ago I tried the most recent Zoot version under Win 8, and it supported Unicode (although one must choose the appropriate fonts, since the fonts used in the default Zoot layout did not su...
Zoot XT and Evernote
9/29/2013
The link to the discussion which you mentioned doesn't work (at least by me); I get a message stating that "The conversation that you requested no longer exists."
Could you post an alternative link, ...

Conversion from Pdf to txt file

You can display PDFs internally in UR (if I'm not mistaken, even with the Standard version) by clicking Options, Browser, and then adding .PDF under File Extensions to Display in Internal Browser view...
