Great for organizing my stuff
Pros
Cons
Summary
I love this software - it's become my method of choice for organizing all of my data gleamed off the internet. The interface could be better, but the rich set of features by far makes up for it.

It's a web service!
Pros
Cons
Summary
This is a web service, and the "$6.95 to buy" is per MONTH! That's $83.40 per year. You want more space and features? That will cost you around $20 a month, so about $240 per year. Sounded very interesting, until I realized what it really is. Thanks, but no thanks! I'll keep looking for *software* that does what this claims to do, and that stays nice and quiet in my computer. No web services for me - been stranded before when they've gone belly-up.
