Note Taking Tips?
Adam Schoales | Sep 29 2007
I'm in my first year of university and trying desperately to come up with the best way to take notes on my mac... I've been looking into notae and yojimbo (I like the tagging features alot, but dislike that I can't put in pictures and such) but have heard good things about journler and devonthink. The problem with Notae (which I used today) is everything is in SQL databases which is going to make it difficult. Plus most of these apps REQUIRE you to make a new database file rather than a bunch of text files which it will database and collect, etc. I've also heard wiki's are a great way to take notes but have no clue how to do so on my mac. So please, if you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them. I'm sure there are many like me who also would love to know any suggestions for great apps for us Univeristy kids. 105 Comments

 Use a reporter's notebook to take notesSubmitted by gregoryillini on September 30, 2007 - 3:52am.
I use 'reporter's notebooks' - the slim pads that are spiral bound at the top -- to take notes in meeting, phone calls, etc. Then retype them later into a Word:Mac or OmniOutliner document. This forces you to look at the material at least twice recently after hearing it, and you'll have better recall later. » POSTED IN:
