When I first saw the link to iDiary I thought it was an Apple application. It’s not , it is for Windows. Apple has a nice downloadable iDiary from iTunes here which you can use on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. You pay for it. The iDiary for Windows is a free download without the bells and whistles but its attraction is its encryptions,password protection and beautifully simple interface. Some sites recommend it for journalling and keeping personal thoughts. I wouldn’t do that but you can put in hyperlinks and images so it’s a useful diary, note taker, speech preparer, reminder, list keeper. It has a spiral bound interface and the toolbar does everything, including search your entries, so it’s perfect for keeping lecture notes and would be handy for the Netbooks. It’s like a word processor so any text based things you want to accomplish can be done and if it is preparation for an assignment or project you can keep the resource links and images you want. You can download it here. It’s not really a Tweens application. It’s for anyone who needs a calendar and text application. It is password protected and can be exported and imported to other computers. Quite handy really.
