Fifty Ways to Take Notes

I am constantly writing notes. Whether it be for my blog, work, meeting, new ideas, or just basic notes, I am always jotting something down. So I started thinking about all the services I’ve used for taking notes and thought it would be a good idea to share them with you and while I’m at it, to make a list of any others that I find.

Now, when it comes to note taking, I personally look for quick and simple. If I have something on my mind, I don’t want to go through some advanced system and climb a mountain just to save a note for myself. There won’t be all the note taking tools out there on my list, but ones that I feel get the job done well.

Using a quick public page service, as I call it, is my favorite method of saving notes on the go. Some are simply a text field on a page that you fill and in click save, others allow you to record notes to a service directly through Instant Messaging with AIM, and some are full planners for creating well outlined documents.

Development
I’m a programmer and when I’ve got an idea on my mind for a script or code snippet, I want to get it down ASAP. I find that collaborative programming services, like Pastebin, or just a service that lets you save a script and share works perfectly. These are like quick public pages, but for programmers.

• Pastebin - Collaborate on debugging code snippets and receive permanent links to code snippets.
• TNX - “Simple web service for temporary text storage. A unique URL is generated, that can be easily pasted in a message, but is hard to guess.”
• TextSnippets - Public source code repository in that you can tag and categorize code. You may also set snippets as private.
• PasteHere - Make pastes from screenshots of your desktop, code from your clipboard, or any other image/text. Pages last for 15 days unregistered user / 30 days registered user.
• Nopaste - Pastebin with Syntax Highlighting for PHP Programming.

-x Maybe it’s just me, but I find applications like OneNote and EverNote more troublesome, cluttered, and consisting of way to many features for my liking. Keep things nice and simple. 37signals does a great job at it, and that is probably why I use their products so much. Believe me, EverNote and OneNote are nice applications, they just don’t grab me like the ones I have listed.
