I really like Federated Wiki, which was created by Ward Cunningham. I run it both locally (for private notes) and on a VPS. I find it is a computer tool that actually helps and encourages me to write and organize information and does not impede me in this activity. ("Clippings" together with a program called FinderNote on Mac OS Classic are another.) Github repo with set-up instructions: https://github.com/fedwiki https://github.com/fedwiki Site with introductory information: http://fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors http://fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors "Sandbox" to get a feel for how it works: http://sandbox.fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors http://sandbox.fed.wiki.org/view/welcome-visitors (NB: This is an older version of the software, but the core features are still pretty much the same.)
