I so wanted to love Tinderbox. I got into Tinderbox to make myself a better writer, but instead of writing I spend my time trying to understand Tinderbox. Actually, I'm not being entirely serious. Still, I wonder where the break-even point comes -- when do I stop working on the program and when does the program start working for me?
I thought the price was insane. People I respected told me that I had to try this. I downloaded the demo and couldn't figure out the fascination. Finally, I bought it. Too much evangelizing from other users made me pull the trigger. Took me two years to kinda understand the charm of the product. I haven't scratched the surface of it yet.
It is now indispensable to my workflow. Rare example of software which enhances your life. I don't work for them. Just an user.
Hmm, actually the screenshots remind me a lot (a LOT) of Freemind.
Well, if you look at it as simply being a note application, yeah, that would be a little steep. It's uh, quite a bit more than that though. That would be like calling Photoshop an "image viewer."
It's a serious bit of kit. I use it daily and have done for nearly year now, but feel that I've only scratched the surface of what it can do ... what I now do with it, though, I can't do with anything else. It's not a 'lite' programme, but I think it does what it does as neatly as possible.
man... $192 for a note app... It burns my fingers just thinking about it...
A bit to much, dont´t you think?
Yeah, it's way over priced.
$192.00 ?
Seriously?
