Chronories

Orgopete reviewed on 06 Aug 2011

I have been using it to log my internet searches. This is what I like about it. I can make a diary entry about the topic and I can drag relevant URL's into the diary entry. You can find dates with diary entries or computer activity by color shades of the calendar. The visited websites are logged by time so you can see the logic being followed in searches.

You can search within Chronories for topics and it will highlight the entries. I have made a feature request to improve the find command to limit the search to diary entries. I think this would be helpful.

For anyone doing academic research, Chronories can be a great tool to log your activity. I think it is of good value. I see they are describing it as a beta edition. I am hoping that they continue improving some of the features. I have found some quirkiness in the program, but it has been quite stable. Your data is all there even if it may take a little more effort to retrieve some entries, especially if you have multiple or similar topics.

Pulp

Orgopete commented on 13 Jul 2011

I began with Times and upgraded to Pulp. I like the idea, the layout, and the improved layout options.

This is what I find irritating. No provision for my default display and reader style . If you don't like the app default, you must change it for every feed. No provision to unread an article. No keyboard option to return from page to main display (escape will do it). The developers web site is not terribly friendly. They could easily host a forum of users problems, solutions, requests, etc.

My requests prove my ignorance about software development. I don't know how many hours would be required nor how much manpower is available.

FileChute

I purchased it based upon the positive reviews of others. It has failed completely, so I cannot review its performance. I attempted to set it up with my ftp server. I tried a number of different things but all result in an error message from my server. I was using the same settings as I have with other programs that make ftp connections.

I hope to receive help with this issue.

Solitaire City

I tried running Free Cell. I didn't try any of the other games, but Free Cell didn't run at all. I deleted Solitaire City 4.03.

Invoice Biz X

This piece of 2004 software is no longer part of the developers list of programs.

Mercatalog

Nice idea for GeoTagging. However, lacks maps when zooming into large green landscape of London? The vidcast looked easy, but my photos were on top of each other and the timeline. Not obvious how to separate it out without text data and map.

The one feature I looked forward to was to match a photo with a known local time with my GPS data. I just could not determine where or when it fit into the timeline or location.

It may work for you, but this would be better as a beta. Let's hope for v2 or v3.
