• FileMaker 11: I see you can leave the Manage Layouts window open and go back to browse mode and manage layouts stays open. Cool!
• Jim Dalrymple says in his article about FileMaker 11 for CNET that FM11 is rewritten in Cocoa. Anyone know more details?
• Great start in FileMaker 11 with the new charting capability. I learned the basics using the online help examples in 45 minutes.
• I've got my first FileMaker 11 blog post up on FileMaker Fever: http://bit.ly/c8cigS
• Love FileMaker 11 but all the underlined links I use throughout my Studio Manager product now jam the underscore too close to the text. :(
• The sexiest and possibly most useful feature in FileMaker 11 for end-users is charting. A reason to upgrade. #Filemaker
• I know it is superficial, but besides being helpful the additional badging in FileMaker 11 layout mode spices it up a bit.
• Going to be so good to be able to get to edit scripts directly via the Button Setup dialog. #Filemaker
• First 2 things I like about FileMaker 11 - snappy opening screen & duplicating a layout puts the duplicate next to the original not bottom.
• I like the way you swipe right to mark a task done in taskpaper for iPhone and crosses out the item. Nice little $5 app.
• The new Taskpaper iPhone app is quite delightful. Extreme simplicity with projects, items, notes and tagging. $5. By Hogbay!
• Of course, I would like to be able to import from csv or Excel format to BillMinder too but that's probably harder for them to implement.
