I released a program back in February called ideaSpiral. Since early October (I stopped for Nov. and Dec. worked on another program) I've been working on porting it to Cocoa. I had the intentions of including everything that Project Builder has (Folder support, Find functionality, picture in text, multi-document support, etc...) and now you've just gone and ruined it all. :(

Want to see a beta of it? www.dshwrd.com/ideaSpiral/ideaSpiral2a03.sit
(Not near completion -- Folders don't work and drag and drop don't work either.)

Don't worries! It happens all the time. Next time if you have a new idea, I can offer GUI assistance for free... hope that help sooth the pain. :)

Ouch! :)

FWIW, I believe there is still room for an app that is targeted specifically to this purpose, and does a good job of it. As has been pointed out, PB can be too much for a non-programmer to want to deal with -- sometimes less is more. Also, PB lacks a couple of niceties like clickable URLs and easy creation of bulleted items. I don't believe in feature bloat, but I do believe in adding carefully chosen features that are aimed at a specific type of user.

Good luck in your endeavors!
