ZuluPad is a notepad on crack. It's a place to jot down class notes, appointments, to-do lists, favorite websites, pretty much anything you can think of. The great thing about ZuluPad is that it combines the best parts of a notepad with the best parts of a wiki, a concept made popular by Wikipedia. The basic idea has been called a personal wiki or a desktop wiki. Say for instance, you're a music major, and you're studying Bach. You've taken notes on Bach in ZuluPad, and after a long 16 weeks have finally completed the semester. Sometime after the summer break, you're taking notes on Beethoven, and your teacher mentions a way in which Beethoven was influenced by Bach. As soon as you type "Bach" into your notes, it's underlined as a hyperlink. You think to yourself, "oh yeah, I know a few things about Bach". So you click the link, and you can read all of your Bach notes. While you're reading your Bach notes, you happen to notice a link to a page about Henry Purcell, and you can refresh your memory about him, too.
FREDB Bad ripoff of VoodooPad. Was it necessary to imitate the name too?
Seriously try the free VoodooPad lite and compare, you won't hesitate long. ZP has less features, is less stable and is butt ugly. The only advantage seems to be that it's cross platform, and I don't care about that. (Version 0.3.8)
JUKI Some of us would love to consider Voodoo lite in lieu of ZuluPad but Voodoo requires Tiger....a minimum of OS 10.4.6, and ZuluPad requires just Panther....OS 10.3. A good number of us are still using Panther. (Version 0.3.8)

ZANGIEF And some of us (like me) are using Leopard. Some of us (like me) got it on the premier, too. (Version 0.42)

ANDREW SCOTT The application icon is somewhat idiosyncratic. I'm not complaining: it's refreshingly strange. (Version 0.3.6)
GAZMAN I'd like to try this app out but I can't be bothered downloading Stuffit to uncompress it. Why isn't this just packaged as a zip or similar? (Version 0.3.6)
