I’ve been using a combination of Notescraps and Cinta Notes to manage my information. But the biggest problem I had with this was that due to a lack of password protection. Now I am using (SmartPIM). I really like this free notes manager.

I love these programs, though I never have enough time to really try them out! Am currently working with Evernote, Microsoft’s OneNote, and Aignes AM-Notebook registered version.

AM-Notebook is another in the long line of hierarchical note programs. There is a free Lite version available. Has spreadsheet capabilities, etc. I used to use TreePad and went with AM-Notebook after that, but haven’t examined many of the above (I had liked Keynote, didn’t know it was resurrected).

Anyway, thought I should mention AM-Notebook just for completeness. It is still updated, last update was May 2009.

[...] At first glance, TreeSheets looks like a spreadsheet application.The cells in TreeSheet, however, are designed with text in mind, and the application effectively handles all that text in each cell. You can easily nest cells within each other with keyboard shortcuts, or create an outline-like structure complete with headers and subsets. In fact, TreeSheets can used entirely with keyboard shortcuts, which makes manipulating the data extra speedy. The first document that opens upon the initial start-up is a tutorial to help get you started; additional information about using the application be found in the online tutorial. If you’re not sold on the spreadsheet interface, share your favorite note taking tool in the comments below. TreeSheets is freeware, Windows only. TreeSheets [via Freeware Genius] [...]

Those seem pretty cool, haven’t used them yet. Probably wont, memento is my favorite note program. Its low on features and hasn’t been updated since ‘05. But I like it.

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I hadn’t known about some of these apps; downloading

Wondering if anybody knows of a notes program that is organized by tags and is an RSS client as well (i.e. allows for organizing/tagging RSS entries as well as notes). There was one program that did this that I used a long time ago (whose name I now forget), but it wasn’t a very good implementation.

Thanks for this article.
Even if it isn’t under development anymore, ShirusuPad is still one of my favourites: it is small, runs from an USB stick, it runs silently in the background until a shortcut is pressed. Notes can be “extracted” to floating sticky notes, you can set alarms, … I’m just sad that it isn’t developed anymore and its source code isn’t availabe (the author prior to leave development was thinking of making its code available).

Here are some other note-taking programs I use either regularly or occasionally. The first two are basically hierarchical organizers but with additional forms of internal linking that take them beyond the simple tree outliners. They’re not as handy for quick notes but can be excellent for organizing data — research files, inventories, etc.:

TheKBase – http://www.confusionists.com/software.kbase.home.aspx

NeoMem – http://www.neomem.org/

There’s also xmind, which I believe was featured here recently. Basically a mindmapper, it’s got an abundance of ways to append notes, links, etc. and I’m finding it a good way of assembling collections of related information. http://www.xmind.net/

Treesheets is also portable:

Note that it does have a single setting (default font), which it saves to the registry (only if you change it).
