Definition: Info Select

An earlier Windows personal information manager from Micro Logic that provided an unstructured method for organizing contacts and notes. Info Select let users enter text in a free-form window and retrieve it by searching. One of the first PIMs on the market, Info Select evolved from Tornado Notes.

Although the program contained countless features, many people used it strictly for note taking and only had to remember two keyboard keys (N for New and G for Get), making it very user friendly.

Users Loved It, But...
Info Select is one of those addictive apps that never migrated to smartphones, causing devoted users to lament the lack of mobile access. See note taking.

An Info Select Window

Info Select notes are created in blank windows allowing the user to place information anywhere. Users can put as many key words in the note as they like to help them find the information later.
