If you're still using Leopard, we will maintain version 2.5.9 on our site for the remainder of the year.   

This past week has been very busy for our team. We just shipped NoteTaker 2.6 and NoteShare 2.6 which both require Snow Leopard as a minimum system. With Lion on the horizon this year, we're busy preparing to support the new user experience features coming to Apple's next operating system version. In advance of Lion's arrival, we've introduced the 2.6 version series of our products which are now available from the Mac App Store. They are the beginning of our new development effort for 2011.

Should I upgrade now?

If you're already using 2.5.9 then it's not an essential upgrade for Snow Leopard users. Version 2.6 includes a new menu structure and updated documentation now delivered in notebook file format (.ntx). All other changes are minor bug fixes that are already available in 2.5.9. If you do upgrade or buy a copy from the App Store, you won't have to pay again or pay for future updates as we will be releasing them throughout the year via the App Store.

App Store Licensing

The App Store is a hassle free way to keep your software updated and never worry again about lost or stolen license keys. No more support emails required to find your license. The App Store is a convenient, simple way to get the latest software from AquaMinds Software.   

Can I try before I buy or upgrade to 2.6?

Yes. We are posting 2.6 trial versions on our site early next week. Apple doesn't currently support test-drives so we're posting free 2.6 trial versions on our site.

New Pricing for App Store

NoteTaker 2.6 is $24.99

NoteShare 2.6 is $49.99

NoteTaker Viewer 2.6 (free)

What about Leopard users and 2.5.9? Will I still be able to buy it from your site?

Yes. We'll continue to sell 2.5.9 to Leopard users from our site.

Are you working on an iPad/iPhone client with support for capture and live editing?

Yes. If you have used NoteShare Mobile Viewer on your iPhone or iPad then you know we're heading in that direction.

NoteShare, NoteShare Server, NoteTaker and NoteShare Viewer Updated (version 2.5 now available for download). Another free update for all registered users. For new users upgrading to NoteShare, we'll be creating a special mailing list for mobile client news as we get closer to release.

They are being designed around the latest NoteShare technology which brings seamless collaboration and sharing to both individuals and workgroups. NoteShare Mobile Lite will require NoteShare so we're announcing today a limited time only upgrade offer to all our registered NoteTaker users. Registered users are eligible to purchase a NoteShare license for $39.95. The offer runs until November 1, 2010.

Happy 4th of July!   

Tags and Multiple Tags
The Preview versions also introduce support for tagging entries with multiple tags (formerly known as categories). Users asked for this feature and we're pleased to announce that you can now assign any number of tags to your entries. The Index section has its own Tags page as well so you can see a summary of all of your notebook information in one place that has been organized by tags

Integrated Social Search includes Twitter and YouTube
We've also added enhancements to our Web Research Agent scripts by including two new scripts; SearchTwitter and SearchYouTube. Open an existing or new notebook, then select one of the new scripts and type in a search string. The web agent will then search Twitter or YouTube and then automatically organize the search results in your notebook as separate pages with titles in a new section. It's a productive way to leverage both Twitter and YouTube for fun as well as for important research projects

What's Next?
We have a very busy development schedule including the introduction of NoteShare Express Desktop for Windows and Linux users that is coming in July. After that, we will be focusing on our mobile device solutions for Apple's platforms (iPhone, IPod Touch and iPad) as well as solutions for other mobile devices. And finally, we continue to work on the cloud version of NoteShare Server. It's currently in early testing but the results are very promising. Our cloud service is going to enable fast and easy notebook sharing while supporting multiple devices and browsers for access as well as editing.
