Journler hits 2.5.4, goes shareware

We at TUAW love Journler (OK ... we love a lotof things; but that's beside the point). Journler was recently updated to version 2.5.4, giving many fixes to the note-taking, Swiss Army Knife journaling application. Some of the fixes include:

  • Leopard compatibility

  • Improved Tiger performance

  • Token based tagging

  • Built-in blogging removed (added support for 3rd party weblog apps)

  • MailTags keyword support

  • Importing PDFs got faster

In addition to these features, Journler also became a shareware application. What this means is that when Journler 2.6 is released, you will need to buy a license to keep running Journler; otherwise, you will be limited to a 60-day trial, after which, you will need to buy it. Version 2.5.4 is meant to be a "transitioning version" where you can buy a license now, but these licenses will not be enforced until 2.6. The developer's blog has the complete details. Until version 2.6, Journler will remain free to download from the Journler/Sprouted website.
