WhizFolders 6.1
Note Taking Software, Outliner and Link Manager for your notes & ideas

You can see these streaming Flash Demos directly in your browser. There is no waiting involved. They start playing immediately. Each tutorial (except the first two Introductory tutorials) targets a specific feature area of WhizFolders.

If you are new to WhizFolders, I recommend that you look at the two introductory demos and also the tutorial on Linking features so that you can insert wiki-like links between your own notes on the PC.

Introduction 1: A first look at a Document Window in WhizFolders: In this tutorial, we will have a first look at a WhizFolder document. I will also show you an example of a working link between two notes.

Tutorials on Linking features in WhizFolders: New! WhizFolders stands out for its unique and powerful hyperlinking features. We have started preparing detailed demo tutorials demonstrating various linking features. Here are some of them. More are coming. A little background on WhizFolders linking features: Note that there are two types of links in WhizFolders. Web links are ordinary links like many other applications in that they appear automatically when you type web addresses in the editor. I am not talking about those kinds of web links here. Instead, I am going to show you the special WhizFolders features of inserting links from one note to another and also the links to other files and folders, including special web links where you can specify your own link text. Sounds confusing? Please see the demos first and then read this note again.
