It looked interesting and there were some ideas which sounded interesting, but when I came to use it, I found little, if anything, which didn't have a close equivalence in org mode and many things in org mode which it did not have. In the end, it came down to asking myself do I really want yet another information management framework in my life and the answer was no. I do vaguely recall (it was a while ago) there were some ideas I thought would be good to add to org mode though. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the details now.
