Ask HN: What's a good notetaking program that allows tagging?
I've been keeping notes in one big word document, but I want something that will allow multiple tags for a piece of text. I'm considering CintaNote, but I don't want to move everything over and then find there's something better. What would you recommend?
- samstave 15y agoCatch.com I wrote a whole freaking design, business case and mockups for a FANTASTIC mobile note taking app with all these features - esp. tagging and then some... After I completed many HOURS on this, I found Catch.com is EXACTLY what I designed and was needing... :( Seriously though - its great. Check it out. (Mine was called JotBox)
- seagreen 15y agoThanks. I may give them both a try and see which I prefer. It will probably come down to ease of exporting, I really don't want to get locked in to either one.
- keiferski 15y agoEverNote has always worked well for me. My only issue with it is that notebooks can only be nested one level deep.
- captn3m0 15y agoNot exactly notes, but workflowy.com is pretty awesome for lists. I've used it for my class notes as well. It has tagging support via #hashtags and @mentions.
- resdirector 15y agoMine: http://www.folderboy.com http://www.folderboy.com Built entirely around the concept of tagging. Combines the idea of folders and tags into one single concept. That is you can put notes into multiple parent folders, and those parent folders can be put into folders themselves.
- seagreen 15y agoBeing able to tag tags is great. My main concern is I don't see an easy way to export notes from folderboy. I've got a TON of notes to move over and I really don't want them stuck on one service (I have no idea if this is representative of other users or not).
