Using Tags felt like magic (assign a tag, and it’s instantly shows up in Spotlight! Wow!), and OpenMeta’s open source release promised to lower the threshold for other developers to implement this fantastic tagging solution in their own apps. When Tags and OpenMeta were released within a day of one another a few weeks ago, I was ecstatic. Tagged: 10.5, file library, release, shareware For more information about the update, see the release notes. If you’ve been looking for an easy way to store notes, URLs, PDFs, application license information, passwords, and much more without the overhead and complexity of other solutions, Yojimbo has always been a great option, and with version 2.0′s improvements to the tag browsing system, I highly recommend giving Yojimbo’s free 30 day demo a try. The program now requires OS 10.5.7 or higher (including 10.6). If you purchased Yojimbo on or after January 1, 2009, version 2.0 is a free upgrade. Yojimbo 2.0 is a $20 upgrade for existing users, and costs $39 for new users. Additionally, instead of creating a collection for every tag Yojimbo now features a “tag explorer” that shows you related tags and allows easy filtering for items across the database. Tags can now be renamed, combined, and otherwise manipulated through the new tag and label manager. Although I knew it was aiming for simplicity, Yojimbo has always felt like it sacrificed too much in an attempt to attain that goal. Feature highlights include an improved Quick Input panel, the ability to tag and otherwise categorize PDFs when you “print to Yojimbo”, an improved drop dock with customizable contents and tag collections (that will apply the tags they filter for when you drop an item on them), and scads of improvements to the basic tagging system. Yojimbo 2.0, the next version of the oh-so-simple file library from Bare Bones Software, was released today.
