Following on from my theme of 'Cult of personality' within the Apple Community… Yesterday a new iPhone app was released called Vesper from the wonderfully named company Q Branch (love that bit)..
At any rate Vesper is yet another 'Store your thoughts' app.. these are without doubt THE most common form of 'Serious User' app out there. I guess the king of the hill for sometime has been Evernote which is a massively versatile and flexible storage and Data aggregation system. I have converted many clients over from paper or Abandonware solutions to Evernote and all have been been overjoyed. Before Evernote I used Yojimbo from Bare Bones Software. Loved this, only at the time it didn't have an IOS client and has never had the 3rd party support Evernote has enjoyed.
Suffice it to say there's many and various flavours of this sort of App.So to have another one announced..thats iPhone only is of little interest to me. What makes this one different is that one of it's three creators is Daring Fireball 'Rockstar' John Gruber. His name alone being attached to this app has given it exposure, and from what I've read he hasn't even done any coding on it!!! See this review:http://www.tuaw.com/2013/06/06/vesper-simply-collects-and-organizes-your-thoughts/ Within the 2nd paragraph they mention Gruber..and Gruber before the other guys.. The Inner Circle (see previous blog post)
So Vesper is a clean (read basic)note taking/organising app. One of literally hundreds and is worth no more exposure than it's myriad kin...
