[AccessD] One Note

Ok.. Ever-note looks cool too.  I guess because we use Office 365 I can already use One-Note on any mobile platform (via a web browser) anyway.  The only downside is that the web app version of One note lacks the full functionality of the desktop client.  Given the O365 is still in fairly early days I would expect (or hope) that the functionality improves as the O365 system is upgraded over time.  Actually O365 on the web does work better on IE, mainly due to the extensive Active X functionality on some of the controls.  That said, it will work in any browser, albeit with some limited functionality in places.

Funny about the UI comment. I really like the tabs in One notes and find them easy to use and understand, but Charlotte doesn't like them at all.  This must be a problem for designers of these sort of inferfaces.  We are all different in how we think and we like our data stored and presented.  Interesting stuff.  I wonder how the decide what works best.  A lot of trial and error I guess, which a bit of fashion thrown in too I would think.

Cheers
Darryl.

I really like One Note but the accessibility of Evernote from any platform has won me over.  Plus, with the paid version you can share notebooks on the web for anyone to see. You can read on their site about how it's being used by various people.  I liked the story about a school teacher having his students sign up for an account and how he has used it for assignments, etc...

I used it a lot when I still had a Windows phone.  Once I jumped to Android, I switched to Evernote, and there wasn't much point in using two different apps for the same kind of things.  I'm not a lover of OneNote's tabbed interface at all, so it wasn't painful for me to leave.
I still use dropbox for things I don't want to stash in Evernote but do want to share to my phone, though.
