http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html gets posted almost every time there's an org-mode front-page link, and there's good reason for that. I've been working in org-mode since 2006-2007, and it's still the most complete, single-page view integration I've seen of the project into someone's life. Sacha Chau (http://sachachua.com/blog/ http://sachachua.com/blog/) is also a fantastic resource for information on org-mode, just a bit more spread out across years of posts.
So, yeah, with 10 years of org-mode experience behind me, I still don't feel like it's smooth yet. I never got the hang of clocking. The lack of stable integrations to the outside world are what kill me. Yes, there's been mobile apps from mobileorg to orgzly to new ones I don't know about, but none have ever really nailed the interface. Calendar syncing is iffy, and breaks often. I still use org-mode for notes, blogs, writing, etc, and my emacs config is org-babel'd, which is a fantastic literate programming environment. I'm even working on a small package to export org-mode to gitbook format (http://github.com/qdot/org-gitbook http://github.com/qdot/org-gitbook, don't get your hopes up yet as right now it's just 2 small functions, but it does work). org-trello integration (https://org-trello.github.io/ https://org-trello.github.io/) is getting me closer to what I want, but that still means bouncing org -> trello -> other services, which isn't exactly ergonomic.
I would love if org-mode could be my full memex implementation, but there's parts that just aren't there quite yet. Since part of the package is still extremely useful to me, I'll certainly keep trying.
