ADM Metadata Problem Solved 9/1/2006

Some time ago I wrote here about issues I was having with ADM's metadata. To clear the air, let me say the problem was *not* with ADM. I had my dpi display setting at a lower level than default in o...

Wiki -- Why? 9/1/2006

Again I am trying out Connected Text, and again I am wondering, why wiki? Other programs can use internal links without having to enter text in an edit mode that looks funny, and then having to flip ...

Ariadne As An Alternative 8/24/2006

Jan, I have downloaded 5.07.70, but haven't had a chance to do anything with it yet. What is the fix included for me? Thanks. Daly Jan Rifkinson wrote: >New version (5.07.70) was posted, Daly. Inc...

Ken Ashworth Post Missing? 8/21/2006

Chris, under the Index Card Software thread the indication is that there's a post from Ken Ashworth, but there appears to be no such post. Daly

Index cards software 8/17/2006

Jack, I just looked at Cardbox's site. I am curious about the program, but at its price I wonder why I wouldn't use Filemaker or a program like that. Re the price, I find that a number of the Britis...

Organising knowledge 8/15/2006

Wojciech, I think that InfoHandler probably fits that bill better than anything else on the market. I checked out the Research Assistant program you mentioned, and saw that you could use up to three ...

ADM/Domink 8/12/2006

Dominik, I apologize for the typo in your name in the topic. Daly

ADM/Domink 8/12/2006

Dominik, I am wondering what your thoughts are on the new ADM build. You usually respond pretty quickly when there is a new build, and I have missed your input. Daly

New ADM Build 8/11/2006

Jan, the ability to search across files is a critical one. For example, on both ADM and Zoot, I have a planning file and a project file, but references relevant to a particular project can be found ...

New ADM Build 8/10/2006

Dan, I guess I am not very observant. I just realized our email addresses do not show up here, so I don't knows yours to send Eric. Sorry about that. Chris, who runs the software this site is based...

New ADM Build 8/10/2006

Dan, I am sorry you did not receive a response. I have sent an email to Eric, quoting your post, and asking him to respond to your note here. I did not provide your email address because I did not hav...

Check this out fellow CRIMP'ers! 8/10/2006

Ian, I can tell you want me to reduce my productivity today! I looked at Topicscape -- it is interesting. Then I thought that if it is graphical I want, I have FreeMind, which, as the name suggests,...

New ADM Build 8/7/2006

Ian, I have previously made Eric aware of my thoughts re the web site and the betas, and I also emailed him on the ADM Developer group asking him to follow the previous thread on this site regarding A...

New ADM Build 8/6/2006

Ian, you're welcome. Unfortunately for me the problem that caused me to stop using ADM back in early summer, that is some bizarre behaviour affecting my ability to work with metadata tagas has not be...

New ADM Build 8/6/2006

This morning I received an email from Eric that was addressed to a large number of people, presumably the people on the former ADM Fan Yahoo group, announcing that ADM beta build 476 was available, an...

ADM Group Down? 8/5/2006

Steve, I agree with your points about the ethics of positioning and pricing the current version and the beta as ADM has done. I wish Eric would change it, and this issue did come up on the list. Once...

ADM Group Down? 8/5/2006

Chris, I think you make good points. In ADM's case, I do not think there was an intent to provide poor service, or to ignore glitches, but rather a case of not tempering the vision with a hard-nosed ...

ADM Group Down? 8/5/2006

For months and months we have been waiting for ADM to begin the coding process again to get the bugs out of ADM 4. There has been no regular communication from ADM. When pressed by the group, Eric Som...

ADM Group Down? 8/3/2006

I have been in touch with Jan Rifkinson, who managed the ADM group, and asked him what has happened with the group. He confirmed that he shut it down as the result of an apparent stagnation in the de...

WhizFolders and Graphical Front Ends 7/16/2006

Stephen, good question. I think of cloning in the context of the outline, and the notion of putting an item into a folder such that it is not someplace else. As a result, the question comes up of wha...

WhizFolders and Graphical Front Ends 7/14/2006

Ian, I read your note about WhizFolders with interest. I have always thought that other programs could do most of what WF does, as well as some other things, such as provide clones, metadata, etc. B...

IdeaMason 7/9/2006

Ken, I have been trying out IdeaMason, but too soon to give a detailed review of it. The appproach is certainly unique, and seems to be taking advantage of a more contemporary approach to software de...

Micro Logic: Hands in Your Pockets 7/9/2006

Micro Logic seems to be determined to drive people away from InfoSelect. The latest is a charge for providing support, according to this excerpt from the IS Yahoo group: "I just tried to send a messa...

Opal -- new outliner for Mac OS X 7/1/2006

David, thanks for the update. I am no longer in the Mac world, but back in the day I was. Acta was one of the first programs I used. I very much appreciated its speed and simplicity. Best of luch w...
