BrainDump: still not king

[prog]

Creating an SVG Wiki. Reminds me of BrainDump, or rather, what I'd like BrainDump to be, in my fantasies: as close to a true hyperlinked notebook as you can manage, with support -- maybe even emphasis -- on freehand writing and drawing (henceforth "scribbling"), and the ability to easily make scribbles into hyperlinks. This is for people like me who often need to actually scribble ideas with pen and paper in order to think better. But this results in individual sheets of paper everywhere with no metadata or logical connection among them, and I hate this along multiple axes.

Very very interesting. Will pursue later.

Also, made ORANet post about POOP.

please please please do something with BrainDump sometime.

VoodooPad is nice and all, but it is sadly lacking several key features, even in the latest version:

How about some real search functionality? (find was just added)
additional metadata for each "page", like maybe a subject heading or category for organizatioal purposes
user definable metadata would be great
object embedding, not just linking
an outliner mode for brainstorming
a browser view mode to easily see and skip between all pages
