Evernote is awesome. Although sadly currently only invite only while it's in beta, but you can easily apply for an invite on their site: http://preview.evernote.com/ http://preview.evernote.com/ It has a great clipping tool so you can easily clip snippets from websites and has built in OCR capabilities so if you snip a photo/image you can filter your notes by text actually contained within the photo. It also syncs between your desktop client and web version so you are never without your notes and currently supports mac, windows and mobile windows, with an iPhone version coming soon.
