Roadmap too!  :P

This program is right next to FARR on my list of must programs to install.

TaoPhoenix:

Still too simplistic looking for me - it seems to stack all the notes into one giant heap.

And I can't seem to test out the HTML export *before* paying the license fee, so this is a no go for me.

dantheman:
Well, the html file is really basic. All in one with all the hyperlinks you had in CN intact.

Of course, the program in itself is really simple but when you can capture a url + text in one click and then search your whole database super fast without worrying about where you saved it, that is pretty darn good for me.  :-*
I remember a friend who would place all his paper work in one pile.
He knew pretty well where everything was much better than myself who tried to keep things "tidy".
IMO, the tagging part of CN helps to satisfy that "tidy" part of people (me included).
