Treepad Lite: Notes Manager / Text Editor / more
This is one of my favorite computer tools - with it you can organize just about any type of information that you may have. Typical database tools aren't very good at just organizing thoughts, random bits of information, or unstructured data.
Treepad lets you organize information easily, in a structure that you create on the fly. It's configured very similar to Windows Exlorer with the organization tree on the left and the data on the right. As you add in new categories a new "blank slate" is created automatically...just type in your info and go!
Personally, I've used it to organize web site designs, web content, internet research, brainstorming sessions, programming notes, and much more.
Pros:
- easy to use
- completely adaptable to any applications
- compact program, little overhead
Cons:
- limited linking in freeware version
- limited exporting in freeware version
Of course, I just convinced myself to upgrade to the full version. I use it enough that it's definitely worth the $30.
Testimonial: I use this program on a daily basis and it holds some of my most exciting work.
