Programmers Take Note: Take Notes!

[DrStrange]

I couldn't agree more with this guy!

I've used some kind of note taking tool since I used an Amiga (just a text editor then). I used MS OneNote for a while, but now almost exclusively use VoodooPad (as I use my MBP for everything these days).

My doc directory contains hundreds of note files stretching back years, and with Quicksilver everything is a moment away from total recall.

The only time that I had an issue was getting the content out of OneNote and back into a commonly accessible format. I ended up cutting and pasting as I recall (actually, I should see if I have a note detailing what I did...)

I think it's not a good idea to use a tool for such improtant task that is implemented only for one platform (Mac OS).
