While hunting for a review of Onfolio today, I came across this site, Marc's Outlook on Productivity.

I'm always on the prowl for better and faster ways to get more done, and Marc's site has a lot of great news on tools such as OneNote and Onfolio, PDAs, and other misc. productivity enhancing tools.

One of Marc's latest reviews:

I've often noticed a tendency for people to compare new and innovative tools to something they already use as a way to define the new product. It's human nature, I suppose, to refer to the known when describing the unknown. In the past few weeks, this has been happening with regard to two new tools I've been testing and writing about - Onfolio and Scopeware Vision.

Both of these products have been described as alternatives to OneNote. In my estimation, this is way off the mark. In fact, I think a much more compelling argument can be made that both Onfolio, a research gathering and publishing tool which I've written about here, and Scopeware Vision, which I'm preparing a review about for you, are excellent companions to OneNote in a productive synergy of information management tools.

When products "blur the lines" like all three of these applications do, a lot of people try to define the new idea by a process of reduction. That is, they focus on one aspect of what the tol can do that overlaps with what they're familiar with rather than evaluating the new tool on its own merits. I think that's a mistake and can lead people to dismiss, out of hand, some very useful additions to their system.
