Re: Wish: smart collections by type

2008-05-22 Thread John

I'll 3'rd that...

It would be great.

But from what I see so far, as a very new person here, it appears that  
the developers have a very definite mind of their own as to what YJ  
should do, and/or, not do.  Maybe I'm wrong, but they don't seem to  
pay much attention to the desires of their user base.


I've still got 3 weeks left on my Demo copy, so I'll just see how it  
goes. So far, I am impressed, but would sure like to see some of the  
suggestions I see here implemented.


I sent them an email requesting hierarchical folders/collection, and  
was told that is not going to happen. I wonder why? Doesn't anyone  
else want this feature too?


Oh well...???

It would be cool if one could make smart collections by

I would think it would be pretty straightforward as YJ already has  
that info for each entry in it's database.

I have a Notebook licence which I got through MacHeist, and I did try  
using it for a while, though moved back to Yojimbo as my main stuff  
manager.


Notebook, I think, would be great if you are lucky enough to have  
clearly-defined projects which don't interact with each other a lot.  
It has all sorts of nice ways to subdivide content, have different  
pages allowing entry in different formats (one page could be a big  
free text thing, another an outline, another a dated log) and does  
things like export tasks to iCal.


I found in practice that with my stuff inbox mostly consisting of  
lots of small random items appearing and needing to be organised, and  
things which seem to endlessly move about between projects and be  
relevant to dozens at once, this didn't really fit in with how I  
wanted to do things, and so I ended up sticking with a combination of  
Yojimbo and iCal. However, Notebook is certainly a good product, and  
one I enjoyed using - I preferred keeping activity logs with Notebook  
over Yojimbo for instance.

Re: OT: YJ vs Notebook

2008-05-22 Thread Robertson Dale A.
Yojimbo is ideal for smaller bits and is one that I frequently use.  
For more structured stuff or larger collections of related items, e.g  
a series of newpaper columns or articles Notebook fits better for me.  
I use them both
