Yojimbo updated to 1.1

We're a little late on this one, but Yojimbo, a very functional yet simple information collection tool, has been updated to version 1.1. Among the decent list of additions, changes and bugfixes are new features like:

opening a bookmark in a preferred browser (not necessarily the default)
applescript-ability
search field improvements including toolbar statistics like iTunes and Mail
improvements to dragging items to the collections list
removing backgrounds when printing web archives
.Mac syncing no longer requires Yojimbo to be running

I started finding all sorts of great uses for Yojimbo and actually decided to buy it last night, so I highly recommend checking it out if you've been looking for a better way to get organized.

If you're dependent on Spotlight, unfortunately Devonthink is not there yet. Yojimbo doesn't look there yet either, but with CoreData/SQLite/Spotlight support, it's a little more practical then finding disparate associations through AI algorithms. I want to like Yojimbo, but they aren't catering to the power user (yet, i hope).

I am curious as to how Yojimbo differs from Devonthink -- looks to me like pretty much same kinda thing (at exactly same price - $39 for Yojimbo vs $40 for Devonthink Personal), but Yojimbo lacks Devonthink's AI features. Anyone have any thoughts on which is better as a repository for random stuff?

I have tried Yojimbo as well as a few others, but was curious to know your (or others) thoughts on it. While there are things about Yojimbo that I like, it lacks a hierarchal system for document seperation. This is important for the functions that I want as it allows me to drill down on a subject matter (code snippets for example). Currently I use Caboodle, a nice piece of donation-ware.

Yojimbo looks a lot like the Finder to me
