Has anyone used Outliner 4.0?

Has anyone used or tried Outliner?

Outliner 4.0 allows law students to custom organize all of their law school information, have it at their fingertips, and generate every type of report and outline with the click of a button that the student could ever use in law school.

Sounds like it’s promising the stars, but the idea of a smart notetaking framework that could help me generate outlines at the end of the course is kind of appealing.

Actually, has anyone tried taking serious notes in something more than a word processor? I know there have been some personal semantic wiki’s floating around. I just wonder if I could keep the markup and organization straight on the fly with a semantic wiki package.

    I’ve used some mindmapping software for meeting notes back when I worked for a living. It was a valiant effort (if I do say so myself) but it didn’t last long: non-portable and non-intuitive (either it wasn’t natural to me or I hadn’t nurtured myself on it).

    Thanks Ben,

    I think I’d be willing to risk a learning curve with a non-intuitive process. When you combine non-portable with non-intuitive, though, that’s too big a risk.

    I’d just love something a bit richer than the outline tool in Word.
