March 22nd, 2007

At 1.30am in Vienna, 8.30pm in New York City and 5.30pm in San Francisco, after six months of work, countless hours of lost sleep, bugs, crashes, fixes, additions, reports, requests, features and a lot of tea, the long awaited version 2.5 update to the Journler series was released. Folks, it’s here. Journler 2.5 is now available for download.

Journler 2.5 is the most recent update to the premier journaling program for the Macintosh. Flexible, powerful and elegant, Journler is a daily notebook and entry based information manager.

Scholars, teachers, students, professors, scientists, thinkers, the business minded and writers of every persuasion use it on a daily basis to connect the written word with the media most important to them. Powerful enough for the most demanding Macintosh user, yet simple enough for your mom.

Version 2.5 is packed full of features while remaining familiar to any Macintosh user. Among the new additions and changes…

  • Incredible new interface.
  • Faster and leaner thanks to better disk and memory management.
  • Infinite depth term-document relationships with the Lexicon.
  • Completely re-written AppleScript dictionary.
  • Spelling auto-correction, word count, URL recognition, curly quotes and wiki linking.
  • Smart folder auto-tagging.
  • The Drop Box and JPanel for getting stuff in.
  • Improved resource management and resource viewers, including the customizable media bars.
  • Mail integration so you can add, search and view Mail messages right in Journler.
  • Snapshot for adding pictures to your entries, just like video and audio.

Journler 2.5 is a recommended upgrade for those using previous versions of the program. The initial release is English only. Translations will begin appearing within the month.

Journler 2.5 implements a new license policy. Please ensure you are familiar with it.

    I’ve just started using Journler - this is a fantastic application. Thanks for all of your hard work.

    Are there any plans to allow users to import data from other information management applications, such as Barebones Yojimbo?

    I think that once someone has invested considerable time in using any information management application, they are locked into using that application unless there is some reliable mechanism for them to migrate to what they perceive as a better information management solution. Otherwise, they have to be willing to spend considerable time migrating the their information manually. Providing a mechanism for importing data will make Journler all the more attractive.

    Thanks again!

    Send this one over to the forum if you will: Journler forums

    Chances are you can migrate. Journler has a very capable importer, if you can get the stuff out of Yojimbo.
