... FWIW, Stephen, I very much appreciated your establishment of the Yahoo Groups site as a backup for Outliners.com when it was playing up. Thank you very...
Thank you, Steve. I also appreciate this forum and the opportunity it provides. But I find the discussion anemic in. The new forum is no different (and I check...
Manfred, I know you're a proponent of Connected Text. How do you like the new version? Also, do you use Connected Text like a big "Shoe Box" or do you create a...
Steve, ConnectedText certainly can be used like a big shoebox into which you can throw any kind of thing. And sometimes I use it like that. But the ability to...

Manfred, I agree with your comments about the advantages of "one fact on one card." If you haven't seen it, there's an interesting information manager on the...
Gentlemen, I wonder if we aren't diluting our discussions when some people use this group, and others use the forum. Of course, people are free to do whatever...
Is there a way to have the new forum send out emails when new messages are posted? Either that or offer an RSS feed for comments? (I personally think email...
Chris, I did look at that Website. Alas, I do not have a Mac (and from what I gather it only works on a Mac). But the relation of outlining and the index card...
Manfred, What intrigues me about the wiki concept is that links create structure without the rigidness or clutter of hierarchy. With the typical two-pane or...
Hello Chris, oops. I just sent an email to the other Chris suggesting he email you at the forum asking about email notification. I am glad it is something on...
Hello Chris, Chris Murtland designed the forum site for this community, and I know that he wants to further develop it. Perhaps the best thing is to put a post...
Hello Manfred, ... I looked at the website, but didn't see much there that impressed me. But I agree with you about the one fact, one card metaphor. I use 4 x...
Daly, I looked at ndxCards and tried it out but decided that the flexibility and "interconnectability" (if that is a word) of ConnectedText served me better....
Manfred, Thanks for sharing your ConnectedText experiences with us. Have you looked at TiddlyWiki (and the various variations that exist of it)? What are the...
... I agree with you about the one fact, one card metaphor. I use 4 x 6 index cards when taking notes from journals and books, and documenting my ideas. ... ...
Hello Manfred, ... Although I have difficulty fully appreciating the wiki approach of CT, I can certainly see how it is head and shoulders over ndxCards as an...
Hello Ken, Thanks for the post. ... I have Notabene on my system, but frankly find there are easier ways to index my stuff (I use X1). The discussions on the...
... index my stuff (I use X1). ... well discouraged me from doing too much with it. ... of the programs I named. ... that Biblioscape is sufficient for that,...
Hello Daly, thanks for the references. I will be sure to look them up. What you say about ndxCards sounds about right. I am looking at Whizfolders right now...
Peter, one of the main differences between TW is that CT has a robust database and full text search. Though TW has been developed in interesting directions...
Hello Daly, I have taken a closer look at Zoot, and I do find it to be better than I remembered it. I played with it and took a close look at the Forum file to...
It's late ... I forgot another important difference, which should go under C: (iii) Zoot has the ability to synchronize with Outlook. ConnectedText can't do...
You can though, with ConnectedText, grab the GUID, (or other link options) with e.g. free tool 'Windows Linker' from www.teamscope.com of any Outlook Item or...
Manfred, I appreciate your thoughtful comparison of Zoot and Connected Text. I have extended my trial period of Connected Text and am working with it. However,...
Manfred, I think you've very accurately summarized the differences and the similarities between Zoot and Connected Text very excellently. I would like to add a...
I've added a text file of all forum messages at OutlinerSoftware.com. When logged in, you can access it with a link in the user account links to the left. Or...
