Idea Keeper is a List, To Do, and Note Management Program for the Macintosh.
Use it to keep lists of important ideas, keep notes organized, and manage to do lists and reference materials of all kinds.
This program is similar to the old "Stickies" in that it is based on managing several windows of text. There the similarity ends. Idea Keeper allows you to keep multiple sets of notes (called "Topics") in which you can format text, insert links to other files, other notes in the program, sounds, etc.
Idea Keeper allows you to create individual "ideas" (akin to Stickies notes) stored in "Topics". The "user" can create up to 100 "Topics" (folders), and each "Topic" can contain up to 100 "ideas" (files). Each "idea" is displayed in a window, and the size is limited only by the amount of memory the user assigns to Idea Keeper. If you like Idea Keeper but you need more Topics or ideas, let me know and I'll modify the program.
Idea Keeper displays one Topic at a time, allowing you to quickly organize, view, and edit the ideas it contains. The user can choose to open any number of idea windows for that Topic. As you switch from Topic to Topic, opened windows and their position are always remembered by Idea Keeper.
You can easily navigate from one Topic to another, copy or move individual ideas between Topics, and create clickable-links between ideas (even between different Topics). You can also import/export Topics (folders) and ideas (files) in a Finder-friendly fashion.
To perform these tasks, Idea Keeper offers a variety of choices (menus, shortcuts, mouse).
If you so desire, you can make Idea Keeper invisible or iconized when in the background.
Idea Keeper supports Balloon Help to make it easier to find your way around without having to consult the documentation.
This program is $15 shareware.
Idea Keeper is released as fully-functional software. None of its features are disabled. However until you have paid the shareware fee, a message is displayed whenever Idea Keeper starts up and quits, reminding you that Idea Keeper is shareware.
