Far Eastern Economic Review – 16 Oct 2003

From Jeremy Wagstaff’s Loose Wire column:

The real time-saver is to keep a back-up of all the programs you are likely to want to keep using in the future, and make sure you have any serial numbers and other settings handy…If you’re stuck for a place to store all this info, I’d recommend something like Jot Notes from King Stairs Software (www.kingstairs.com).

Digital-e blog – 15 Aug 2003

Jot+ Notes helps you to get organized. It’s particularly useful for writers — each note in a Jot+ notefile can contain up to a million characters of text, more than enough for the average novel or five. The beauty of Jot+ notefiles is that the files are self-contained, which means that you can easily move them from one computer to another, via a diskette or other media. I’ve just started using the latest version 3.0. I’ve been more than happy with previous versions, and this update looks even better.

I also want to mention a shareware program called Jot+ at www.kingstairs.com that keeps logs and other random data very nicely indeed.

Customer Comments

These are just some of the nice things people have said about Jot Cardfile and Jot+ Notes:

Again, a great product. I’ve had it for years and STILL would give up relatives (many I could name) before I’d give up my Jot+ Notes.

I started to use Jot and liked it. It is better than Cardfile.

Jot looks like the answer to a prayer for me.
As I like Jot so much I want it now!!

I am finding JOT incredibly useful for organising projects, to-do lists, study notes, and knowledge databases on a variety of topics, and it is already making me more productive.

I love software possessing both a simple purpose and powerful execution. Yours is a little gem. I can’t wait to register and start using it in my work.

Hi there. I have looked over Jot for a few days, and am very impressed.
I have used it for a week, and already feel that it is an indespensible tool. I have tried out tons of shareware and retail programs, trying to get certain features; Jot is by far the best product.

As you can tell, I am very impressed with Jot+ Notes and have recommended it as widely as I am able.

It has been a really handy utility.
Quite an outstanding but apparently simple piece of software.

I’m a dedicated fan of Jot; it’s indispensible.
By the way, Jot+ looks fantastic.
I still use Jot daily, and consider it my most essential tool!

Excellent program!

I use it every day, all the time.

I wish to become one of your beta-testers as I think Jot is a GREAT product & hope it takes over the world!!!

Was waiting around for Billy Boy, (Bill Gates) to come up with the new card file….but you beat him to it.

Since I just found another significant use for Jot, it seemed a good opportunity to thank you again for the remarkable way in which you have helped me organize my teaching and research responsibilities.

I have spent multi-thousands on software that works like crap and is not supported …and this marvelous utility gets supported PERSONALLY!

[Jot+] is one of the very neatest programs I’ve seen. And I’ve been working with PCs for 17 years

Still feel this Jot+ is the be-all and end-all! Thank You!

Thank you for an excellent product. I was convinced after 15 minutes of use and even more convinced after several days have elapsed.
