[comp.databases] What do people think of Lotus' Agenda program?

rsw@cs.brown.EDU (Bob Weiner) (04/07/91)

I'm interested in peoples' impression of the user interface and
information organization concepts used in Lotus' Agenda.

What works well and what doesn't?

Do you like the automatic category linking capabilities and the means of
'authority' control provided by the program or do you find information
ending up linked into the wrong places too often?

Is their integrated editing sufficient or would a separate editor be
more useful?

Thanks for any reviews you can provide.  I'm looking at personal
information manager architectures, hence the questions.

Sorry, this is a "me too" message.

As I am currently looking into PIMs, I would like to learn 
about your (yes, YOUR!) experiences, impressions, and thoughts about
PIMs (especially of the AGENDA variety).

Any pointers to the literature about concepts and implementation
will be very helpful (I have got the CACM article about AGENDA).

If there is enough interest, I will summarize to the net.

Thanks in advance!

Martin
