I do something similar but with apple notes. Still simple but I get a bit of formatting and some checkboxes, tags and decent search. I can also create reminders that link back to highlighted parts of a note.
- criddell 5y agoYou can also add images, scan in documents with your phone or tablet camera, you can sketch with the Apple Pencil (on an iPad), and it does OCR on images you paste in so you can take a picture of a whiteboard and the text on it will be indexed. My big complaint is that there isn't a decent Windows client. I sometimes will use the web version, but it's maddening because some of the keystrokes for things like word left or word right (ctrl-arrow) don't work.
- athenot 5y agoSame here. The best part is that I spend zero brain cycles in thinking where to file a note before I write it; pretty much every note is in a generic Notes folder. I have one exception: any 1:1 meeting with a person gets its own note and those go in a specific folder. One note per person and a bullet list under a date, with talking points. I also use this ahead of meetings; when I suddenly think of something I need to discuss with someone, I add it to their note. Then when I meet them, it's part of my agenda. It's also searcheable so if I need to refresh my memory about an older discussion, whether it took place and when, it's a few keywords away.
