Having software that is – here and there – rough around the edges really isn’t the problem.

I think those aspects like not being able to grasp how to export things immediately is nothing that boosts creativity but much rather tends to get in the way. B - Data outĪnd then time and again we find statements like this one. But then one starts to not only look at the data brought in but wants to work with it … and here I do agree with Not being able to really touch (that is: tag, annotate) the data in Tinderbox is a hindrance. So in such moments a deep integration with Devonthink or Airtable seems unavoidable in order to bring the data in. That said: There comes a time through such work where I really need to bring in some resources that aren’t always available as neatly formatted CSVs. I really like Tinderbox being a remedium, a remedy – so to speak – in this respect. And even further: Sometimes Tinderbox is the dojo to unleash myself from where I got stock in more strictly framed environments such as Outliners or Mindmappers. This “somehow-somewhere”-spot for me often is: Tinderbox. So asking for sharing his experience what it has been like to be in the arena and discuss with non-Tinderboxer advantages and disadvantages of QDA-Approaches etc … seems to me/be a rather interesting starting point, don’t you following your call, For me Tinderbox is a Tool unlike any other tool that really is agnostic to all the frameworks other tools offers due to one good reason: At the very beginning – no one knows one thing … and yet has to start somehow - somewhere. I really like this and benefitted a lot from that.īut from time to time there are discussion like this one here arising that really never actually seem (!) to lead us anywhere. As long as I have been following this as well as the old forum I really learned a lot about the techniques and different approaches of how to incorporate certain display/view options etc.

It is a lot of work to try to annotate a pdf and try to convert the annotation into usable Tinderbox note.Īs I wrote, I think we need to know, understand and be able to explain why and how Tinderbox can support our thinking process. The biggest hurdle in Tinderbox is the big disconnect between primary sources (reading materials) and the tinderbox notes.

And, most attractive part of QDA apps is the strong connection between primary documents (annotating and commenting on them) with the idea generating systems (such as tagging/coding, commenting and writing a memo).

It is extremely expensive, and totally evil because once you forget to export your data before your license expires, you are out of luck. Saved searches, in combination with tags (codes) do help but never as sophisticated as the tools in Tinderbox.įor me, the biggest hurdle with Atlas Ti is the license. Advanced scripting o the type we have in Tinderbox is not possible in these QDA apps.

The sheer mentioning of the respective conference contribution certainly pushes but definitely does not satisfy my appetite for knowledge and insight.īeing able to assign unlimited attributes to notes as the unique feature of Tinderbox … Hmm … well, that really wouldn’t convince me and win me over.īy “higher programmability”, I don’t mean just the attributes you also have to think of the agents and other smart tools such as the smart adornments, OnAdds etc. So, I’d really love to know what did present on a computer-assisted QDA conference and how the discussion about the different tools and approaches turn out. Especially when you think that what in QDA-Contexts is referred to as Coding, that is: assign Tags to every word, sentence or paragraph isn’t as easily done in Tinderbox as it seems to be in Atlas Ti or MaxQDA. So, if I understand it correctly: Being able to assign unlimited attributes to notes as the unique feature of Tinderbox … Hmm … well, that really wouldn’t convince me and win me over. Tools like Atlas Ti oder MAXQDA or Tinderbox are interesting especially when it comes to support or even jump-start the thinking-process.Īnd I think I learned that even Atlas Ti as the time being has rather powerful tools for visualising ideas. For me it is not so much about drafting dissertations and the like. Thank you for your answers, think this sort of discussion is needed in order to help ourselves to really understand more and better what one can only do in Tinderbox.
