That it's taken further and somewhat arrogantly called 'standard' notes really chills me on liking this product at all, given that it completely and intentionally omits useful things to a lot of people - including me.

Speaking personally, I completely rely upon PDFs and images and things accompanying my notes because of the nature of the work I do (I have about 4,700 pages of research and almost a gigabyte of imagery all tied together in a Scrivener project for a single piece of work, for example), and the frozen feature set so proudly advertised smacks of 'people need to take notes exactly the way I do,' which is an immediate turn-off for me. Interesting is one word for that, given the main thesis that venture capital is universally to blame for the failure of centralized things we rely upon (with zero evidence to support this assertion), and that building another centralized service with less functionality is somehow the better answer.

Mac only and as others pointed out not updated too regular but I know people who love it. I like this trend of back to basics in computing (even if it is running in a web browser on my desktop), its goals are nice.Įdit:nvalt is open source. Org is its own little world, but I know that I can always edit an Org file on any computer with my preferred editor. That said just taking notes in a consistent place and in a consistent format gets you 80% of the way there. Emacs and or any other text editor will just works. I have settled on Org and or Markdown, to Dropbox if required sync. I feel this will work for a lot of people, especially less technical users. Sadly it is closed source and Mac only so it does not have the same overall philosophy (despite the note output being very portable). I would also mention nvALT has a similar philosophy in terms of file format and supports Markdown and fast searching of notes.
