Yojimbo, The Anything Bucket
I'm constantly searching for apps, that makes my life (and work) easier.
Few months ago I tried Simplenote, but found out that I don't need a note taking app, since I don't take notes. Then out of curiosity I tried Evernote but didn't like the Mac app's user interface and the way it looks.
Then I found Yojimbo, which can hold notes, bookmarks, entire web archives, images and even passwords and serial numbers. It has the looks I want from a Mac app, but after few days as I fiddled with it, I didn't know if I'd really need it.
I went seeking for some reviews and blog posts just to see what others are thinking about it. Then I came upon Shawn Blanc's post on Yojimbo, and getting to the end of very convincing post, I'm pretty sure I need a app that holds not all, but meaningful data. But after reading the post, I started to wonder if I really need something that I have to prove myself by reading numerous articles...
Nevertheless, if I decide to take out all the files out of my (Finder) folders, those few notes, passwords and all the other stuff, and move it to Yojimbo, I'm little bit concerned what will happen to my use of Dropbox. After all, Dropbox keeps my files synced at all times and at the same time is a nifty way backing those babies up. If Yojimbo could store all the files in folders (and subfolders), and I could change the location where it stores those, I could use Yojimbo and Dropbox simultaneously.
So, I'll give it a go for now, and hope in the near future Bare Bones allows me to drag and drop files out of the app, not just in - export feature is clunky, whatever the app is.
