I’m giving a five hour web-writing training session for a corporate client this week. I don’t think I could plan my talk as effectively without Tinderbox.
This multifaceted application is, amongst other things, a phenomenal outlining tool. Just to give you a hint of its capabilities here’s a slide of my (hotchpotch of) notes.

Tinderbox helps me to shuffle my thoughts around, stores the image clips I’m using in my Keynote to illustrate my talk, and happily handles all the urls I need quick access to. I’m workout what I’m going to say and how I’m going to say it before building my Keynote presentation. Because Tinderbox is so light and adaptable, all the hard work is done here figuring out the content of my talk before I fire up my presentation software and craft my slides.
I could do this on paper –possibly. But it would take so much longer.
The eclectic work I do as a copywriter, journalist and translator always benefits from this tool. It’s one of the reasons I love the Mac platform.
