Together
Jul 3 2008
*****

KADOOGAN  I trialled this for a while, and recently paid to register. To be honest it was one of the easier buying decisions I have made.

I had previously tried DEVONthink and EagleFiler. Whilst DEVONthink is a good piece of software I found it took too long to start up, and it's method of using it's own database to store my files was a big issue for me. Databases can become corrupted so as well as storing all my files in DEVONthink I had to keep the original files as well. Both EagleFiler and Together do not work this way, your files are kept in their original format, so even if you experience a problem with the program your files are still accessible from Finder.

My main reasons for choosing Together over EagleFiler were mainly the user interface, which I find much nicer in Together, and the way it deals with saving emails. EagleFiler seems to keep emails in separate mailboxes which means you can't have them in the same folder as PDF's or txt files, and it's difficult or impossible to access them directly from the Finder (maybe there is a way round this but at this point I found Together which didn't have the issue). Together simply accepts .eml files which it stores in the same folder as all your other docs, or whatever folder you choose.

The one thing I can think of that I would like to see is the ability to zoom into images. At the moment it just displays them as full-size if smaller than the display window, or shrinks them to fit the window if the image is bigger. I'd like to see a button to zoom into a small image to make it increase to fit the window.

Together is a lovely piece of software that makes browsing your documents a pleasure rather than a chore.

KADOOGAN  I'm tempted by some of the reviews to give this a try. Looks useful for those situations when I need a little more flexibility than what my current software does.

KADOOGAN  I have been wanting to learn to play chess, and this could be a good excuse to start now.

File Synchronization

KADOOGAN  This could be useful for syncing files between my laptop and external drive, which I do manually at the moment.

KADOOGAN  Shame about the reviews. The software sounds good but obviously needs some work. Maybe one to look at again when the next version is available.

GL Golf

KADOOGAN  Seems like a good deal with all of the extra courses. Sometimes it's fun to play a more simple game of golf, rather than something like Tiger Woods Golf.

KADOOGAN  Had a play of the demo and it seems a fun game, although possibly more suited to kids.

KADOOGAN  Looks quite a useful app, and the comment about the next version sounds good. Think I'll give it a try.
