My difficulty w MyInfo
Posted: Wed Jan 17, 2007 8:51 pm
revolves around pinpointing where selected data is going to land in the outline. The v4 road map/options list seems to address this problem & a few others which are of interest to me.
The way I use the program means that I have had to create a greater # of files/topix than I would otherwise do in order that I didn't 'lose' data somewhere in the middle of some outline.
I supposed I could have created an archive topic, dumped everything in there & then move specific items to their appropriate places in different outlines.
In any case this is at least a two/three step process & about one/two steps too many.
That and the dis-interest to develop some kind of calendar/reminder function make me a little nervous about switching over to this product now.
I realize developers are trying to stay away from PIMs but calendar/reminder functions is also data needed to organize one's busy life as well as setting priorities.
Having said that I think MyInfo handles some things better than the program I currently use [ADM] but the ease of use particularly in the area of getting data into ADM/Zoot/Ariadne is so much simpler than it is in MyInfo, t I think I will have to revisit the program after v4 is released.
I'm open to alpha/beta testing if that would be helpful to the developers. And, of course, I will sign any non-disclosure document in the process.
Anyway I thank you all for welcoming my into your community, for your patience & help in getting me up & running in MyInfo. I really do think it is a fine program & may, in fact, become my data gathering of choice in the future.
I will anxiously await v4 as I am just as anxious to stop using ADM as I am to find a better alternative.
Again, thank you.
