Thoughts 1.0.2 out! Allows basic syncing to other macs via dropbox or idisk

Another update for Thoughts is out. Version 1.0.2 can be downloaded from you servers.

This update brings some often requestesd features, like default formating for new pages, custom location for the shelf folder, show/hide the sidebar of opened book documents. But most importantly it brings basic syncing to other macs via dropbox or idisk. To use this choose your idisk shared folder (or dropbox folder) of choise as Thoughts shelf folder location. (Warning: This does not allow to work on one book simultaneously on two macs

There are also many bugfixes and optimizations which should speed up the overall use of the shelf and more.

Grab your copy here:)

Hope you like the new features;) cheers dietmar

Thoughts prototypes based on my apple resume token for the ipad???

I just looked back at some emails to steve i sent in the year 2006 i think.

After that i got an email back grom steve and from the apple staffing section, where they asked me for a resume and worksamples. I sent them to apple.

Have a look at the email i sent to apple in 2006:

Now guess what i see, the ipads ebook reader interface (when you open up the book) looks exactly like the one i sent apple in 2006. This resume was a prototype which Thoughts is based on.

Have a look at this side by side screenshot:

I know that this is some kind of often used metaphor, and maybe these are just little details, but i thought it would be interesting to mention it and see what you think of it. As Andreas (the coding guy behind green&slimy) mentioned, as this is just a visualization of a real book, there woudln´t be that much possibilities of doing this. It just hit me when i first saw the ebook reader and let me think on thoughts:) So no offence on this:)

If Apple was inspired by prototypes of thoughts or not, i like the ebook reader interface, and i have highest respect of all the work gone into the iPad User interface design and workflow thinkings;)
