Working offline with notes/outliners
Mekkaniak | Jul 24 2006
(Yes, offline, in my own computer. No webtwopointoh extravaganza.) I have been trying a couple of softwares for handling my GTD lists, projects, notes and other bits and pieces I find on the web. Something that can handle the various types of data, and produce nice printouts/exports when I need too present the status of my various projects. TaoNotes was nice but would be even more useful if it had a proper documentation. It is also a bit bloated since it tries to be several things at once. ConnectedText is really good, but I want HTML support. Its not enough with Wiki markup. I am currently using UltraRecall which so far has met my expectations. It also has an open data structure, so I for could for example add a "@Context" field to my Tasks. So, any other recomendations? 5 Comments

It's not so much a pure outliner, per se, but EverNote is amazing when it comes to notes. I started using it a year ago for all of my note-taking needs (phd student) and it is amazing. Hieararchical categories, multiple categories per note, automatic categorizing based on format or content of note, category intersection, letting you do AND, OR, NOT on multiple categories. It can take a bit of getting used to, i.e., the "never-ending tape" concept, but it's a worthwhile investment in time. The basic program itself is free, but there's also a pay version for ink support. Also, it includes an amazing clipper that lets you clip things from the web (along with links). You can link to files on your machine as well. Anyway, http://www.evernote.com, and I don't work for the company, but I am a biggggg fan. » POSTED IN:
