Liqbase should open quickly on the notes scratching page. No stars, no splash screen, nothing.

Agree, faster = better. Liqbase is the fastest note taker, camera snapper app on the tablet, and it could be even faster!

Of course, that depends where you are starting from.

Theres so much more inside liqbase that I am using different features all the time, whether its the camera module or playing with the new stuff I keep testing or reviewing whats there.

the clock on the stars has also been tweaked to be big and useful - I'm normally on that screen when idle now (obviously a battery killer).

I have got the core elements for registering all the available modules and plan to allow full menu customization which will include configuring the module to run "on startup" (as well as screensaver)

You can annotate PDFs in Xournal, too :)

I cant read either, as far as i can tell, the paper says something like

Bamagotal gene a ogrem

I am trying to expand my utilization of my notes and recall is as important as storage.

I have a visual record thats easy to review and find what i need, this will be augmented shortly with full tagging and grouping and hopefully adaptive HWR to pinpoint anything you have stored.

The database required to contain and manage this is being worked on amongst other things :)

How good is Notecase?

I liked this feature very much about liqbase (I use it to make my grocery shopping list), but I also like the rasters on Xournal. It gives me a less messy feeling.

If you write something down it gives some kind of personal touch to it. You use your own handwriting, and this contains a lot (invisible) metadata. Although consciously you would not know this aids in the memory. For example, if you are hurried, you might write something down fast, and when you reread it this is part of the memory. In the case of a computer font this link is less likely made.

However on the Internet I can go to a grocery store website, select my shop list, print it out, and pick it up. This is also user-friendly.

allnames,
i think notecase is something different

http://notecase.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html

http://notecase.sourceforge.net/thm_...se_zaurus1.png

its mind mapping and recursive tree based entry.
I've written many of these kinds of things in the past and organising data is of great importance to me.

(incase its not clear, this is one of the variants I wrote and used a couple of years ago to do similar job as notecase)

Once you have the data in it should be simple to place where required.
This mapping and relating sketches and threads and blocks is where development is heading now.
(obviously not with a crappy interface)

ok, i played around a bit with xornal and found that the lined background helps my writing.

so maybe if one had something similar for liqbase, i would find more use in it ;)

I prefer xournal for 2 things: The lines, and the white paper. If I could choose white background, i would use it more, i think. Its a personal preference.

Re: liqbase - faster than paper
 
fair enough on both points :)

If been asked before and I have no problem with that.
I'll try and make sure its configurable in the next released version.
