Just started keeping a journal (never done so in my whole life). Found the app Day One and it's brilliant. Simple yet effective.

Also the dev is planning updates to support iCloud, Full Screen, and Photo's.
Can't wait!
Nice find. I am about to begin a new long-term research project and I have been meaning to start a journal to document my progress and this seems like it would be a no-frills solution.
As for my app recommendations: Graphic Converter (neat, simple graphics tool), Scrivener (great word processor for writers), and Dropbox. As for professional applications, I think Acrobat X Pro is a must for anyone who consistently deals with text PDFs.
Why not use Scrivener since you already have it. It will allow you to do what you want, plus much more, all the way through your writing phase.
I know, but I think I need to keep a separate journal. I need to just sit down and reflect on what I am doing and where I am going and if I am in the same app where I work, I think I will feel constrained by the work I have done and the journal is supposed to be more philosophical. Does that make sense? I just like the idea of having a separate journal that I can read on its own to track how my ideas develop, people I talk to about my project and stuff like that. I don't know. I am terrible at journaling, which is actually a liability in my field :s
Two directions I might suggest. I used Circus Ponies Notebook for about two years as a strict journal/diary. It worked well and has an automated index of every word. However, even with just text it was close to 3 MB; I didn’t even think about adding photos.
Here are my fave mac apps for now:
1) Caffeine (otherwise the constant dimming of the screen drives me mad)
2) Scrivener (crucial for working on my thesis)
3) Notebook (absolutely fab for keeping digital notes)
4) Dress Assistant (a digital inventory of my wardrobe... bec I have way too much stuff, I actually forget what I own)
5) iScrapbook (totally fun and a fraction of the cost of doing it the traditional way)
6) Transmission (for downloading movies and songs)
7) VLC (for playing those downloaded movies)
One app that I would not recommend, based on the number of complaints that have been posted in this forum and elsewhere, is CleanMyMac. As an example: CleanMyMac cleaned too much.cleanmymac
would love to hear any recommendations

In most cases, app removal software such as AppZapper doesn't do a thorough job of finding and removing files/folders related to deleted apps. For more information, read this.thanks guys i havent encounted any clean my mac problems luckily.. thanks for the heads up! it just got appzapped![]()
