This means that later when I am looking to use the smart artificial intelligence that is the best feature of the DEVONthink application, it will do a much better job. This application gives me a much better sorting of the web articles that are found, than I would find by doing an ordinary Google search. Practice a number of times what you find in the tutorials before you go on to learning the next thing that you need to know. This way you will make sure that you will properly learn the lessons and not forget things. There is a huge amount of information to get through and things to learn about the application DEVONthink, so it is probably a good idea to dive into the application after watching one of the videos showing a portion of what you need to know. Better still, you can go back to an earlier point in the video and watch specific lessons in the video again. One of the great things about videos is that you can pause them and then go and try what it is that you are being shown.
It also shows you how you can use tagging to create searches and how to save those searches to make smart folders or smart groups. There is a setting that you can change within the project properties and it is explained in the video how to do that to get better use from the tagging. The way that I recommend is to watch the video from start to finish in one go first of all, and then to watch it again stopping at points along the way to try the processes involved in the video. I would suggest that it is a good idea to watch the videos and in some cases watch the videos twice. When you open up the application there is a start-up window and there are links to tutorials and hints and tips. It is in fact quite amazing some of the things that can be done with DEVONthink and is well worth spending the time looking at the tutorials. Because of the complexity of this application it is absolutely vital that you devote a reasonable amount of time in learning how to use it. So this is what I will be using for my review and tutorials.
I applied to DEVONthink to get the pro version that they offered to journalist, bloggers and reviewers and they sent me a not for sale copy. Not sure if I would have the need for all of the bells and whistles in the Pro versions.
We shall see! I have gone for the Devonthink Personal because I had a licence for a previous version and if I do the upgrade to the latest then it will be to this version. The people that get using Devonthink do love the app and what it gives them in functionality and swear that it is well worth spending the money. There are multiple versions and the top end ones are a bit pricey. So lets see what we have to do to get started. I have Scrivener and it really is the business for writers. I have Evernote when gives me the receptacle for stuff I want to save for reference.
