Looks like the fine folks at Bare Bones Software have released Yojimbo, an great new take on the organizer-cum-database that many have tried, and failed, to do well…
The Yojimbo team has done a great job, addressing many of the classic missteps directly, with:
- A good first cut at a smart “Quick Input” panel that analyzes what’s on the clipboard and pre-fills as much as possible
- Rapid, global search capabilities that make it easy to locate things—including Spotlight support
- A useful set of built-in datatypes
- Easy “sub” organization using groups and tags
- Full support for “archived” web pages, PDFs and the like
- Item-by-item encryption
- And, best of all, transparent, multi-machine synchronization through SyncServices and .mac
The price is a very reasonable $39 for a single user on any number of (automatically synchronized) computers, with family pack and educational pricing, too.
To top it off, there’s a free, 30-day demo. There’s no excuse not to check it out—go to it!
