Input: [Product] SoapTest [Vendor] Parasoft [Comments]

Output: Automated tool for testing Web services. SOAPtest helps you to prevent errors by performing server functional testing, load testing, and client testing with just the click of a button. SOAPtest facilitates server functional testing by automatically creating a test suite from a WSDL document that tests every operation associated with that document. The same test suite used for server functional testing can also be used as a load test suite that not only monitors the servers response rate with the specified number and mixture of simultaneous requests, but also verifies whether the test loads cause functionality problems. You can also have SOAPtest emulate a server and verify that the client sends appropriate requests to the appropriate services, and that the client handles the services responses as expected.

Input: [PROGRAM] AM-Notebook [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.aignes.com/notebook.htm [DESCRIPTION]

Output: One of the better notetaking programs. It is efficiently designed and has several unique and important features. The only programs listed here that has a built-in spreadsheet capable of simple calculations. Also supports individual note encryption. Could very well have been included in the "Big Three" but it's closest competitor, Mybase, has too many additional features that AM doesn't have. AM is also the only program that keeps each note as a separate file, and the tree structure for the database is an actual folder structure on your hard drive.

Input: [PROGRAM] AskSam [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.asksam.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: More of a fancy document and file manager than a notetaking program. This is a pretty bulky (and expensive) program, and it's too much for simple notetaking purposes.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] AZZ Cardfile [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.azzcardfile.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: AZZ is a very nice simple notetaking program. There's no tree or hierarchy system at all, but rather just lumps all the notes together in one long list. It was meant to replace the old Windows cardfile program. It has the live-search (search-as-you-type) feature that I love, although it only reads the titles of the notes, not the note contents. A very good program for those with very simple needs.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] Black Hole Organizer [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.lincolnbeach.com/blackhole.asp [DESCRIPTION]

Output: A pretty nice program. This program and Zoot are the only programs that treat notetaking like an email program like Outlook, using a 3-pane system instead of the more common 2-pane system. It's an interesting design, and I like it to some degree, but I have to admit that the 2-pane system is probably more efficient in the long run. Black Hole has a relatively powerful note-editing features, including a very flexible table support. The ability to use tables in notes is a rare feature among these notetaking programs, but it is a great one.

Input: [PROGRAM] ECCO Pro [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.compusol.org/ecco/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Ecco Pro has a strong cult following. It is a quirky program that is no longer developed. It's interface has a Windows 3.1-ish feel to it. Supposedly, it is very powerful and loaded with features. I don't think it's great for notetaking purposes, but it's outliner is awesome, I'll admit that. Hopefully, some of the more modern programs will incorporate it's outliner abilities into their programs. Most programs now are limited to the standard rtf bulleted/numbered lists as far as outlines go.

Input: [PROGRAM] Evernote [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.evernote.com/en/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Evernote is one of the "Big Three". It is a unique program and offers a couple of very nice features. It's search feature is the best ever, hands-down. It is lightning quick, live-search, and all the matching words are actively highlighted in yellow. You have to try it to truly appreciate how great it is. It also has the best web-capturing ability of all the programs. There is no tree structure, but rather a category system that can do some auto-categorizing. It also keeps all the notes in a long toilet-paper-like scroll. See the Big Three feature matrix for more information.

Input: [PROGRAM] InfoHandler [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.mdesoft.com/eng.htm [DESCRIPTION]

Output: InfoHandler is an extremely odd software. It is complicated, cluttered, and confusing. It looks like it's powerful, but it's a bit much for notetaking purposes. I suppose it can be used to make a complex relational database with or something.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] Info Select [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.miclog.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Info Select is the king of the everything-and-the-kitchen-sink (EATKS) category. It does notetaking as well as anything else you can imagine a software do. I don't think there's any trial version of it, and it's expensive, and you have to pay for a annual subscription. Besides, it does way too much for the purposes of notetaking.

Input: [PROGRAM] Jot+ Notes [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.kingstairs.com/jot/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Jot+ is a regular, simple tree-hierarchy notetaking program. It's pretty decent, nothing really special. Someone mentioned that it has good importing/exporting features, but I don't think it's on the level of Mybase's import/export features.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] KeyNote [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.tranglos.com/free/keynote.html [DESCRIPTION]

Output: KeyNote is the George Washington of notetaking software; it is the father of the genre and the one that started it all (in the modern format). It is discontinued and not supported anymore, but it is still one of the best, and that is saying something. It would be in the Big Three but other programs have built on it's core features since its time. That being said, it is still awesome and great for the simple user, and is probably better than some of the average programs in this genre that are not free. You can work with multiple databases at once, it has a clean interface, and it has some interesting and useful plug-ins. Still has very good import/export capabilities.

Input: [PROGRAM] Literary Machine [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.sommestad.com/lm__index2.htm [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Of all the software listed here, Literary Machine is the one that doesn't really belong. When you run it the first time, you probably won't even know what you're doing. I still don't know how LM works, and I've tried it a few times. Apparently, it has some notetaking capabilities, but I couldn't find them anywhere. Quirky doesn't even begin to describe it.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] MyInfo [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.milenix.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: A very good notetaking program. It has a couple of unique features, including a novel way of adding tags (keywords) to notes. The tag feature is nice because it provides an additional level of categorization to notes, beyond just the simple tree-hierarchy. Most of it's other features are pretty standard, nothing too special.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] Mybase [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.wjjsoft.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Mybase is one of the Big Three. At first, Mybase may seem like just a simple tree-hierarchy notetaker, like several of the other ones mentioned here. But what distinguishes Mybase is it's enormous feature set. It has the most tools and the most ways to work with your data of all the applications here, and that's why it's in the Big Three. The newest version (v5) also includes many great features such as category tags, multiple database functionality, and my favorite live-search thing. I think Mybase is the best alternative for ex-KeyNote users. See the Big Three feature matrix for more information.

Input: [PROGRAM] Neomem [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.neomem.org/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: A very good (and free) notetaking program. It has a couple of unique features, like a nice template feature that you can use to create fields for a certain "class" of notes.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] Surfulater [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.surfulater.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Surfulater is one of the Big Three. Surfulater's initial and primary purpose is a flexible web-capturing program, with sophisticated referencing abilities. However, it has very capable notetaking capabilities, although it's notetaking interface is a little different compared to the standard way of doing things. It probably has the most flexible underlying engine of all the software here as far as what the program can evolve into. For example, the tree-hierarchy it uses can be displayed in 3 different modes, with more to come. That is very powerful. It also has many awesome automated features that complement its referencing abilities quite nicely. See the Big Three feature matrix for more information.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] TaoNotes [WEBSITE LINK] http://actitrend.fre3.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: TaoNotes is another odd program. It has a very convoluted interface, and most users don't even know what anything does in the program. After spending some time with it, it's apparent that the program can do many things, such as manage a ToDo list, keep a schedule, keep a contact list, and normal notetaking functions (albeit in a weird way). It's just strange.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] TreeDBNotes [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.mytreedb.com/index.php [DESCRIPTION]

Output: TreeDB is another EATKS software. It does everything, and is more of a PIM than a notetaking program. Just its toolbar is enormous! So many buttons! It is pretty powerful, but it does way too much for me to say that it's a good notetaking software.

Notetaking Software Roundup #1 - DonationCoder.com


Input: [PROGRAM] Treeline [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.bellz.org/treeline/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: A unique kind of software. Not really a notetaking program, although it looks like one at first. It's tree-hierarchy is too rigid and not flexible enough to be a good notetaking program, and it does things differently than what a notetaker would probably be expecting. It has powerful field/template creation abilities. I think it's more meant for keeping field-related databases, like book lists, movie lists, etc. And I think it does that rather well.

Output: Another EATKS software. Actually, I don't think Ultra Recall is as inclusive as other EATKS software, but it's still way too much for a simple notetaker. Besides, it doesn't offer any unique or special features in the notetaking category.

Input: [PROGRAM] WinOrganizer [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.tgslabs.com/en/winorganizer/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Another EATKS software. Again, I don't think it offers anything particularly unique as far as notetaking.

Input: [PROGRAM] Zoot [WEBSITE LINK] http://www.zootsoftware.com/ [DESCRIPTION]

Output: Zoot is very interesting. It offers a different take on notetaking. Back in the Windows 98 times, Zoot was probably way ahead of its time. Unfortunately, it hasn't progressed beyond the 16-bit look and is terribly dated now. It doesn't have any rtf functions at all, and it's pretty much limited to just plain old text. However, it has some pretty amazing functions. It has the most powerful auto-categorizing filtering/rules of any software out there. Evernote does this now also, but it doesn't hold a candle to Zoot's automated abilities. Also, Zoot has the ability to capture content (text only) from any application, and did so before any of these modern Firefox extensions and what not. Zoot also was one of the first to implement the live search feature, and it does it very nicely. Zoot has a large cult following which is dying for a 32-bit version of the program to be released. I am also eagerly waiting, because I think a modernized Zoot will have several features which will be unique and powerful.

Output: This tool could be thought of as a performance monitoring tool but also includes auditing features, It is implemented outside of the database and as such should not impact the database performance. It detects all SQL statements being sent to the database. The tool could provide very useful auditing features on top of the normal Oracle implementations.

Pete Finnigan - Oracle and Oracle security information


Input: [Tool] Trusted Orange [By] OR Solutions [Description]

Output: The third product in OR Solutions range is perhaps the most interesting and is probably unique. It is built on an trusted Orange authorisation server. users authorise through this server and it controls the types of access and use users can make to the database. The product has a very interesting concept. It is possible to define rules and definitions of what is allowed and what isn't. If a user or developer submits a piece of SQL (a report) to the database it waits for authorisation by a manager or other authority before being allowed to execute. Quite an interesting concept with uses in the military, secret services and any organisation that would like to control users database access more closely.

Pete Finnigan - Oracle and Oracle security information


Input: [Tool] Entegra for Oracle [By] Lumigent Technologies, Inc. [Description]

Output: This is a new product released a couple of months ago by Lumigent. Entegra for Oracle uses a proprietary log reading approach to capture a comprehensive audit trail of all activity in the database including DML, DDL and SELECT statements. It uses lightweight agents to collect audit data from the target servers stores it in a separate repository for archiving and reporting. The Entegra report server allows a point and click approach to creating, distributing and scheduling reports and includes ready made templates. The interface is used also on a SQL server product and should provide a common interface for companies to monitor all database activity. This looks like a very interesting product. It should make complying with some of the new regulations such as Sarbanes Oxley and HIPAA easier. The fact that the repository is separate is a good security plus and also the GUI will allow sorting, filtering and correlation and even alerting. Processing Oracle auditing has never been completely done all in one place so this looks useful.

Input: [Tool] The Data Masker [By] Net 2000 Ltd. [Description]

Output: The Data masker is a new tool that can protect sensitive information in test databases by replacing real data with false but realistic looking data. The data stays usable but does not disclose any real details. It can exchange many types of data such as credit cards that will not work, incorrect phone numbers, random last names, random and false company names, generated street addresses. The tool uses rules to map the data changes that can be then reapplied to the data again. The tool looks very interesting and will find a lot of use in adhering to the regulations such as SO, HIPAA, GL&B and the UK Data Protection Act as well as the rules imposed by the likes of Amex and Visa and other credit card companies.

Input: [Tool] OraDep - Oracle Objects dependencies analysing [By] Sam Trest [Description]

Output: I just came across this fairly new program that has been written to analyse dependencies between objects in the database such as procedures, tables, views etc. The program can produce a hierarchy of dependencies between objects that have been selected to be analysed. It also produces HTML reports and shows the text of the programs where the dependencies occur. The program can also be used to analyse the dependencies between objects in Forms source code and also the database. OK, so what has this got to do with security? - quite a lot. If you are analysing or auditing the objects for security issues in the database a dependency tree is often needed to see the relationships between objects. This is also particularly useful when the object dependencies can be audited at the source code level to see the use of the particular object. A tool like this could save a lot of time when tracking down security issues. Three things i should say about this product, the first is I have not downloaded the program yet to try it, the second is that it is not clear if this program is free or not, hence I have added it to my commercial section. There is a free trial version, hence my assumption that it is commercial although there are no details of commercial pricing. The final point is that I have not looked into this programs market area to see if there are other similar programs and how they compare.

Input: [Tool] DB Audit 2.5 [By] SoftTree Technologies Inc [Description]

Output: I just came across this product via a thread on the Oracle-l mailing list. This is a database auditing solution that can be used not only on Oracle but also Sybase, DB2 and MS SQL Server. The tool allows the DBA or security auditor to monitor all changes and access made to the database. Some of the key features include a central repository for monitoring multiple databases. This fan improve security by isolating the audit trails and it can also provide cost benefits by centralizing the audit data. The tool includes a GUI interface and also central reports. It can audit traffic that cannot be audited natively. DB Audit 2.0 also provides real time alerting. There seem to be a growing number of tools in this space currently and this is an exciting and useful tool space. Although I didn't find it detailed in my cursory look, I suspect that this tool, like others simply analyses the network traffic to and from the database. This sounds a very interesting tool though. UPDATED 06-Jun-2005 I have just updated the link on this tool and also the version number. The product has been updated to version 2.5. I have not tested it but it is available as a free trial download. It seems worth a look if you are looking for an audit solution.

Pete Finnigan - Oracle and Oracle security information


Input: [Tool] Ambeo [By] Ambeo [Description]

Output: I just came across this product via a thread on the Oracle-l mailing list. Ambeo has a range of products available for auditing and monitoring databases in the enterprise. They range from covering performance optimization, data privacy auditing, data migration and resource optimization. The website gives some interesting information that indicates that many databases can be monitored, that users can be monitored across the enterprise and even redundant data can be identified. The auditing solution looks quite promising, the product can detect and audit access to critical or data that has to be legally protected. It can also detect security protection breaches and also find use of non authorized applications. It seems again from the look I had of their site that they too analyse the network traffic like other products on this page.

Pete Finnigan - Oracle and Oracle security information


Input: [Tool] nCipher - SecureDB [By] nCipher [Description]

Output: This is an interesting security product that offers column level encryption to data even when at rest.

Pete Finnigan - Oracle and Oracle security information


Input: [Tool] Repscan [By] Red Database Security [Description]

Output: This is an interesting product by Alex Kornbrusts company Red Database Security based in Germany. Repscan is used to verify that an Oracle databases dictionary and objects have not been tampered with. This could be because of an Oracle rootkit being installed or an Oracle virus or because someone in your organisation has been altering database objects that should not have been altered. The tool works by first generating a baseline repository that is then subsequently used to test if any objects have been changed. The tool works by generating checksums of each object and stores them for later comparison. It is important that the baseline generated is clean and protected from amendment. The tool also checks for some basic Oracle security issues such as checking default passwords. A free limited trial version of the tool is available for download.

Pete Finnigan - Oracle and Oracle security information


Input: [Tool] Ingrian DataSecure Platforms [By] Ingrian Networks Inc [Description]

Output: This is an interesting encryption product that offers a way to encrypt critical data in applications and databases. This is a network appliance and offers a way for companies to meet current legislation. The features include granular encryption and centralized security management. The implementation claims to be seamless (i have not verified this). It offers secure key and policy management, segregation of duties, it is transparent to users and applications. One good advantage is that the cryptographic processing is done away from the database server so the load increases expected with heavily encrypting a lot of data will not be seen. There are three components, the DataSecure Appliance, the Network Attached Encryption server which runs on the DataSecure appliance and the Ingrian NAE connector - a software provider that is installed on either the web server, application server or database server. The appliance is a dedicated hardware component that is designed to just do the computations. It provides redundancy and also has an optional FIPS 140-2 level 3 hardware module providing tamper proof protection of the encryption keys. There are 4 appliance levels each offering different processing power. The product suite supports Oracle, DB2 and Microsoft SQL Server. I have not looked at this product in real life yet but it does sound like an interesting alternative the built in encryption solutions in the database.

Input: [Version] 1.9 [1]

Output: Forgot a bit of code in the CSS that would just waste bandwidth.


Input: [Version] 1.7 [1]

Output: Added code to the theme so that search engines can understand when a post was published. Brought back featured images into individual posts and pages, but you have to enable from the theme customizer. Dropped some code I thought I would use but never got around to it. Finally I fixed the google analytics, not sure what happened, but it is back along with adding site verification.


Input: [Version] 1.6 [1]

Output: Fixed the issue where comments wouldn’t display.


Input: [Version] 1.5 [1]

Output: Fixed an issue with comments, SEO plugins, and add complete control over commenting.


Input: [Version] 1.4 [1]

Output: Minor fixes that show up in the header the theme options are blank.


Input: [Version] 1.3 [1]

Output: Included Google Web Fonts for the Title, Slogan, Menu, Post Title, and Content. I also cleaned up the “Theme Customizer” menu so that it makes more sense.


Input: [Version] .9 [1]

Output: Just a mix up in the code that would cause some errors in version .8


Input: [Version] .8 [1]

Output: Decided to rewrite the theme over again, completely from scratch, after having an amazing thought. The responsive website movement is because the vast number of different size resolutions of screen that we view the content. This amazing thought came to me that I could base everything off of em, which is the average width of one letter on your screen. Unlike using pixels to decide how the website displays where you have no idea what the end users font size is, using em give you a relatively good idea. Doing it this way I have optimized the readability of website based on how the user want to view the website. I also cleaned some code up to lighten the load on browsers and bring a more unified experience whether you’re using Chrome, Firefox, or Internet Explorer.


Input: [Version] .7 [1]

Output: Small update to add in a new feature and rewrite some of the code. The new feature allows for someone to choose from 4 different choices for the white background that looks like paper. This feature is located under the “Background” tab on the “Theme Customizer Page.” As for the rewrite of the code, I decided to have the Style.CSS file leave partially unfinished and have the default choice, or the choices currently chosen, finish the file Style.CSS with the missing code in the Header of the page. By choosing to leave the code out, browsers such as in firefox, chrome, IE, etc. will only see the CSS code once and won’t have to write over and duplicate entries. Basically it keeps things lighter and cleaner.


Input: [Version] .6 [1]

Output: Quick update to add some more features to the theme along with a better “Theme Information” page. It is now possible to choose one of three different banners on the Theme Customizer page. I plan to add even more choices in the future for the banner, and on a side note you can upload you own with Semper Fi. Added in the ablity to easily change the color on Site Title and also the Site Slogan on the Theme Customizer page too. I have removed the file “theme-options.php” from the theme and the that was in there has been move to the file “functions.php” which is in the same folder. Finally the javascript file “background-size-preview.js” which handled the background changing on the Theme Customizer has been rename to “customizer.js” becuase it makes more sense since adding a bunch of code.
