Infocard Organizer is a Java application and outliner that enables easy input and editing of infocards (InfoML elements). InfoML (see http://www.InfoML.org) is a XML-Schema-based standard for storing and organizing "chunks" of information--especially human thoughts--along with metadata about that information (e.g., tags, source citation data, etc.). It is a robust data format that meets most users' needs but can also be customized to handle domain-specific situations. Infocard Organizer allows users to export infocards to a variety of text-based formats. Several basic export formats are provided, and experimenters can create their own formats by writing the appropriate XSLT 1.0 or 2.0 transformations. In addition, infocard files can be queried and manipulated by many existing XML-based tools and technologies. For example, once in an XML database, collections of infocards can be queried using XQuery. Infocard Organizer 0.7 is a stable release that has reliably been used to create hundreds of infocards. It is known to run successfully on both Windows and Mac OS X computers. Creator Gregg Williams (former senior editor of BYTE magazine) has written extensive documentation for it, making Infocard Organizer appropriate for end-users, as well as for developers interested in experimenting with InfoML. For downloads and support, go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/infocardorgnizr/ (note the spelling at the end of the URL). For an overview of InfoML and how it works, go to http://www.InfoML.org/
