Default Organize Your Ink Notes With Free Software

http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&platformId=2&productType=2&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productId=46663

I use the Notes application a lot for quick note-taking at meetings. I generally keep the notes fairly well organized, but every now and then I end up creating a file and sticking it in the wrong folder or I forget which folder I did stick it in. The newest version of Notes Explorer from Meshavi should help me with that. It essentially creates a new Explorer window in your Notes application that filters out and displays only Notes files.



There are some additional features that are kind of cool, too:

� Retains full editing features of the native Notes application
� Includes "preview" of selected notes
� Saves the ink-note in native Notes format
� Displays only folders that contain ink notes, thereby reducing screen clutter
� Automatically names new notes using folder name, day, month and year
� Page style can be preset
� Allows deleting, renaming, copying of notes and folders

And the best part is, this is freeware. It's kind of a specialized little application, but if you use Notes a lot, the price is right.

While I think this product has a niche market, I'm really hoping that Microsoft PocketPC programmers will consider what is being done with the Office "OneNote" product and figure out a way to move it to the PPC. Having a handy "notebook" interface, and being able to copy data from other applications, along with typing and "inking" notes, just makes the PPC so much more useful.

Being able to take the OneNote notebooks "on the road" with the PPC, adding to them, and then "tearing pages off" and beaming them to colleagues would be a powerful tool. And talk about a nice way to manage all the bits and pieces of data I run across daily :wink: !!

Here's the link to MSFT that discusses the OneNote program:
