Tinderbox 1.0 helps manage notes, ideas [MacNN]
Tinderbox. Eastgate has been hyping this on their website for at least a week, I think. I remember looking at it earlier this month. Even earlier, I remember lusting after their Storyspace product when I was a student in college and trying to write a hypertextual poem. That never panned out, and I had to linearize the thing. (That was what came of "implementation-is-trivial" handwaving. Ah well.)
Eastgate products have the same appeal for me as index cards and messy rooms and WikiWikis have for me, as opposed to the blog-journal thing. Much less linear and open to change and rearrangement and "refactoring."
Apparently, shuffling and rearranging are not even required of the note taker. Tinderbox builds relationships among notes (as opposed to people, as blogs do) through the use of agents, and updates information that is connected to the net, I think.
Linearity... ugh.
