• SlipBox provides complete organization for my notes.

  Pros

  My favorite feature is the extensive search capability. Close behind that is the ability to store images and styled text. Combining this versatility into a free application is not common. I was so pleased, I didn't mind paying for the iOS version.

  Cons

  Although keyword management tools are provided, I could use a little more help for cleaning up. For example, I discovered that somehow a few keyword entries appeared twice in many of my notes, and I couldn't find a simple method to fix that problem.

  Summary

  This product provides precisely what I need - a search mechanism versatile enough to empower my memory. I certainly hope development for the product continues.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I have been using SlipBox since early October and am more and more pleased by it. And Spotlight seems to have no problem with it either. I use it for simple things like iTunes receipts, complicated projects involving information pulled from a lot of different web sites, almost all the info I want to store somewhere and be able to find again. Since I can define Type (i.e., Receipt) and Source (i.e, iTunes, VersionTracker) and add whatever keywords seem crucial to a search or memory jog, I can work a lot faster and not have to wonder whether I can find an item later. And SlipBox is not a CPU drain nor a memory hog. It is a good program that does what it says it will.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This might turn out to be the app I was looking for. Desktop wiki's and notebook apps all require too much organising action from the user. This app makes it possible to jot down ideas without thinking too much about categories, merely adding a few keywords, and to discover, at a later point in time, real connections between snippets. SlipBox is not pretty, unfortunately, and it's not just the brushed metal that's to blame. It looks clunky. Also, I'd like to be able to jump fields using tabs. But those are minor things. I think I'll be using this app, that I discovered only today, for a long time.
