Bye-bye, Yellow Stripes …

And Thank You for Coming to Our Little Virtual Party!

For more than a year the yellow/black stripes have accompanied us whenever we looked at DEVONthink or DEVONnote. It's time to get rid of them. February 24 we have released version 2.0 final of DEVONthink and DEVONnote.

Now we want to celebrate! Join our little virtual party. Download the software, get yourself a drink (recipes below) and listen to some music. Or chat with your fellow users, download the DEVONian wallpapers, and check out the forthcoming Getting Started with DEVONthink ebook.

No party without a cocktail — but as this is a virtual party you'll need to prep' it yourself. Here's James top tip for a really good DEVONguerita:

Fill shaker with broken cubed ice
Squeeze TWO fresh lime wedges into shaker
Add 2 oz. Cuervo 1800
Add 1/2 oz. of Jose Cuervo White for a bite if you wish
Add 1-1/4 oz. of Roses Lime Juice
Add 1/2 oz. of Triple Sec
Add 'a splash' of Orange Curaco
Cover shaker AND shake vigorously
Flip shaker in midair twice (three times if you're a pro). THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!
Run lime peel around outside rim of glass
Dip in salt
Add fresh ice to glass
Strain mixture into glass
Squeeze in 1 lime wedge and toss rind over left shoulder ( provides good luck and wards off evil hangover sprits)
Now kick back, turn up the tunes and enjoy!
