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).
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.
The "Journal of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America", in its Law Office Technology column, described how Jot+ Notes can benefit the profession.
There is another product that can help you organize and end the glut of paper. It's called Jot+ Notes.

PC Rabbit - 12 May 1999
Frank Ruiz in "America's Favorite Online Technology Paper":
...organize hundreds of notes you have scattered around your home or office. Jot+ then gives you almost instant access to them.
James Coates calls Jot+ Notes:
probably the slickest single piece of bargain-basement random database note-taking software ever floated on a floppy. ...one of the best PIMs (personal information managers) one can buy at any price.

...just the ticket for saving and organizing all of the news stories, stuff said in phone calls, interview notes and other material that gets collected during a day at work.
James Coates actually calls me a genius in his glowing review of Jot+ Notes!
...slim, trim and top-flight gem of a program... ...Jot+ Notes finds itself as a league leader pointing an entire industry in a new direction.
