Das ist ja auch spurlos an mir vorüber gegangen, dass die GPL V3 veröffentlicht wurde. Sachen gibts …ich hätte mir einen grösseren Knall erwartet. Zumindest so gross, dass man ihn mitkriegt, auch wenn man nicht auf ihn hört.

In the true spirit of scratching my own itch, I started to work on a simple note-keeping application. After noodling around a bit with some ideas, I did some more research (basically, because I was afraid that this new app would be as much work as Timesheet) and stumpled upon Notational Velocity, a simple and surprisingly effective note-keeping app.
NV has only three user interface elements, two of which are used for creation/editing of notes, as well as searching/displaying notes.
Looks very promising, and if I can use it, it will save me a lot of time, and you the frustration of having to deal with yet another app by that guy.
I’m a big fan of applications that try to do things differently, and NV does that. I’m also a fan of strange readme-texts, and NV beats everything I’ve ever read before:

Follow these steps to add a new note:

1. In the Search/Description area, begin typing the description of the note (e.g. “Television celebrities I plan to assassinate”).
2. Hit return or tab to move to the data entry area.
3. Type or paste the actual contents of the note.

Aha.
