urlwolf & IainB:

Glad to find DC members talking about WizNote.

As a software fan & IT volunteer in China, I'm one of the pioneers introducing Evernote to Chinese users, and the translator (into Chinese) of superboyac's review: Notetaking Software Roundup #1
And lucky enough, WizNote developers are my friends.

I'd like to do my best to help English users to know and to use wiznote better.
▌ I use & promote <b>freeware</b>:
▌ vim/7-Zip/Firefox/IrfanView/Wink/Audacity/EverNote/AutoHotkey/GIMP/PDFCreator.........
▌ just at  <b>http://xbeta.info</b>;

@xbeta: sorry, I only just now (2013-08-09)saw your post. Thankyou for that.
...I'd like to do my best to help English users to know and to use wiznote better.

@urlwolf had mentioned the idea of setting up some kind of a user group, but has not yet responded to my suggestion of going ahead with the idea, so I don't know of his level of enthusiasm for it - though he was clearly impressed with WizNote, and it was his enthusiasm for it that initially got me interested.

I don't know whether it would be practical, but if @mouser was willing, do you think it might be worth setting up a user group somehow within the donationcoder forum?
Otherwise, some other approach - maybe (say) in Google Groups? (I am familiar with setting up discussion groups there, but have only used listservers for other groups).

More ideas from the DC forum members?

I'm still here.
User group is too low of a priority for me right now. Feel free to go on without me...

Btw, I'm still amazed by wiznote. It's one of my reasons to stay on windows, even though there are significant downsides... killer app.

What are you using it for?
How long have you been using it?
What are the "downsides" you refer to?

Just did something about this to help us move it along - those who are or may be interested, that is.

^ That's not really a feature  :-\

Especially not with my experiences with GotD.
