Apparently started in TheBrain in 1997 and now has more than 250K "thoughts". That's breathtaking for both the longevity and the scale. I'm guessing that most mind mapping programs wouldn't handle that well.
Gathering the legacy stuff is not as important as getting started with something, I think. The legacy will make it into a new system as it's needed.
I've been using Evernote for a number of years. I don't particularly like it (cumbersome UI without great navigation), but the search has worked well enough for me to find things and its ubiquity has been great.
- dangoor 11y agoFollowing up to my own point: products come and go all the time and it seems like luck that Jerry happened to pick a product that stuck around. It does seem unfortunate to have to risk your outboard brain on luck!
- shostack 11y agoTotally agree about Evernote. Man did they drop the ball on staying ahead with their UI. Certain things that have been solved in text editors for years are still major issues in Evernote. That said, I do use it still, and will continue doing so until there is a solid alternative that I don't think will go poof in 3 years.
