And with all the venture money floating around it would be easy to fund a stable of programmers for two years, uh, wait a minute. It would be clunky and wouldn't have every feature of the OS X version, but it could be done. This is all done without NoteBook having to know anything about any other application on the system (the OS works out the communication details).īut it could be done.

On Windows I would need a team of people to recreate this functionality, *and then* I would get to start coding my app.Īnd OS X's imaging and window subsystems let you create really great-looking, responsive and intuitive interfaces.Īnd there are features that exist only under OS X, such as being able to select text/images/whatever in any application and to send that selection into a Notebook while staying within the source application (this is NoteBook's Clipping Service feature). NoteBook depends upon it for a lot of functionality. OS X is a great development platform that gives you all kinds of stuff "for free." Like the great OS X text object. Well first, it would have to be several someones. The spirals aren't there when you print, which would be a real problem. I can see how that'd look a little silly, but they're not as bad as, This thing just looks sooo cheap with the lines and spiral notebook. In response to Jeff Crawford, who wrote: "I just can't get passed NoteTaker's interface. I suggested it, but implementing it will probably require working with browser developers. You'll probably want to save that as well, most of the time. The only improvement to clipping would be if, when you make a clipping from a web page, NoteTaker also copied the URL and title of the page. The main thing I like about NoteTaker is the clipping service, where you can select a bit of text in a webpage and copy it into a NoteTaker notebook by just selecting a menu item. I was extremely happy when it came out for OS X. NoteTaker, in its previous incarnation as NoteBook, was my favorite application on the NeXT platform. Still, I feel that by not using fundamental pseudo-standards for text editing in a product targeted at writing, they’re undermining the product and should be put under some pressure. I already mentioned this in their feedback form, and they replied that they may give an option to customise keyboard commands in a future version.

So, while I find a huge amount to love and use in NoteTaker, I daily (hourly) find myself hitting option-arrow or command-arrow to move around the text I’m writing, only to look up and find myself on another page! (The ideal product for this kind of thing was MORE – it had the most powerful and useful set of keyboard commands for editing an outline that I have ever seen) Command arrow goes to the start or end of a line.

One glaring problem with it, which I think as a writer you’ll appreciate, is the misappropriation of keyboard shortcuts usually used for text navigation.Īs I write this in Safari (or almost any other Mac software) I can jump back a word or two without even thinking by hitting option-leftarrow. I read and enjoyed your review, and I am an excited user of NoteTaker too. PS I do not have any financial interest in the company and am writing from the point of view of an enthusiastic paid customer. If you haven't tried the product, take it for a spin and IMAGINE.

NoteTaker has a great interface and does many things. So, I'm excited that maybe NoteTaker will be a way to get some convergence between us and the non-blogging world. I've been talking to Scott about a lot of feature requests and thoughts on where things might go.

So, when I met the man behind NoteTaker via email and eventually in person, I realized that this was no ordinary piece of software but something written by someone who had a big plan, but was willing to take a lot of feedback and build it into the product. I can sort them, organize them, annotate them, index them, create to do's and publish them in OPML, as web pages or as mail attachments to others using NoteTaker. Photos of people, sounds, URL's, clippings, PDF's, etc. First of all, I have become TOTALLY addicted to NoteTaker. Anyway, when John tells me I "need to meet" someone, I do. He was the one who gave me MacPPP when it first came out and it was one of the key elements in dragging me back into networked computing again after a lull in the late 80's. I think Markoff's sense of finding cool people and cool technologies is amazing though. I have this funny thing with Markoff because he won't blog. He is the man behind the amazing outliner NoteTaker. John Markoff introduced me to Scott Love over the Net.
