VoodooPad is a program which I purchased back around Memorial Day, and I have to say this wiki program for the Mac is working quite well for me. I’ve been a long time user of ConnectedText on the Windows platform, but of late I’ve pretty much exclusively moved to the Mac and only run windows under Parallels or Wineskin Winery.
My wiki lust of course was frustrated by not being able to conveniently use a program that easily and seamlessly links between entries in the way that Wiki’s generally do. ConnectedText had always worked in this way and certainly VoodooPad does a better job with such links than other note taking programs for OS X. I’d certainly like to find another program like ConnectedText or VoodooPad to test and in fact on IOS there is Trunk Notes which certainly hold promise as a Wiki that not only allows casual linking between notes, but also supports markdown and the Lua programming language.
And speaking of markdown I should also not forget to mention that VoodooPad entries can be written using that format, although I did find out that at the moment there seems to be certain limitations in the implementation and how markdownformatted text interacts with the Wiki structure.
Anyhow, I’m still very much in the exploration stage with VoodooPad so I’m really not ready to give it a full scale review, but perhaps sometime in the future…
