Jon Stokes from Ars Technica talked to me about DEVONthink, about the built-in AI, and about where we’re heading. While I won’t say anything about unpublished products or release scheduled, you may find it worth noting that we are actually working on a new product ;-) Read the full interview here.

One of our users (thank you, Martin!) posted a few days ago that he notices that on the Author’s Note page (p. 414) in Michael Chabon’s new best seller novel, “The Yiddish Policemen’s Union,” Chabon writes: “This novel was written on Macintosh computers using Devonthink Pro and Nisus Writer Express.” Chabon won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 2001 for his novel “Kavalier & Clay.” As we’ve not sponsored Mr. Chabon for putting us in there, we’re more than honored for the mentioning. If you are interested, here’s a link to his novel at Amazon (no affiliate link, just for quick reference.)

It’s fast, reliable, is able to index, cross-reference, search, handles almost all file formats natively and makes coffee for you in the morning (okay, it doesn’t… but DTPro could do that if it wanted to) … (more)

Lifehacker has posted a nice review, sort of, of DEVONthink with a good comments thread that also touches a few ways on how to use DEVONthink. Feel free to add your own comments :-)

Fast Company magazine published a fascinating article about inventions that help you remember everything, starting with Vannevar Bush’s Memex and ending with — DEVONthink! The article is not available online, but you can get a copy of Fast Company magazine issue November 2006 at your local newsstand, or you can contact the publisher here.

Marc Coïsson from MacResearch has recently published a nice in-depth review of DEVONthink Professional, focussed on how to use it for scientific work. Thank you, Marc!

On May 17th, I was interviewed by Craig Crossman and Carey Holzman on Computer America, “the US’ longest-runnning national radio talk show about computers.” I had to get up at 4.30 CET in the morning because Computer America is being broadcast live at 10 pm EST. But, what can you do. (more)
