Ask HN: A Yep-like app for PC?
Does anyone know of an app like Yep for the PC? http://yepthat.com/yep/index.html
From their site: "Photos have iPhoto. Music has iTunes. But when it comes to PDFs and other office documents, you're on your own. That is, until now. Now there is Yep and there's no looking back."
I tried Calibre but it didn't cut it and bogged down my system.
- _delirium 16y agoI've been using Zotero, though I'm still undecided how much I like it (but I do know know people who love it): http://www.zotero.org/ http://www.zotero.org/
- mschaecher 16y agoI dabbled with Zotero for research purposes awhile back, might have to give the latest version a spin to see if I can bend it to my needs. I have tons of ebooks, word docs, ppt, PDFs, etc. though, and manually organizing them would probably(definitely) take too much time. How are you using Zotero?
- samratjp 16y agoDoesn't iTunes support PDFs as well? I remember seeing http://lifehacker.com/240447/geek-to-live--organize-your-pdf-library-with-itunes http://lifehacker.com/240447/geek-to-live--organize-your-pdf... As about Zotero, I have mixed emotions as well - it's a nice feeder for Mendeley from firefox. Other than that, not too sure. Also, checkout Mendeley and this http://lifehacker.com/tag/document-management/ http://lifehacker.com/tag/document-management/ Hope that helps. Let us know what you learn :-)
- mschaecher 16y agoThanks for the reply. Lifehacker and my other searching has led me to these options. http://www.debenu.com/benubird/overview.html http://www.debenu.com/benubird/overview.html http://www.mendeley.com/ http://www.mendeley.com/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/docfetcher/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/docfetcher/ Going to try them out starting with Benubird as it looks like it will address my needs the best. Will report back.
