Holy crap. Looked at the site and thought, "hey, pretty cool. I don't know what I would use it for, though." And then I watched the video and have been coming up with use cases non-stop. Starting with adding vim key-bindings I'm trying to learn to iTerm. Bye-bye yellow-stickies all over my monitor!

Fantastic. Please don't hesitate to share your other use cases. What I have found is that once you get your head around it's contextual you realize that this is how everything should work. If you end up buying it send me a note and I will add you to the betal list so you can get acces to the new version with applescript support.

  I thought it should be integrated in the OS, applications would set the context through the API. Software like this reads the context and manages the notes. That's to say I had a good impression, and I hope to see it on Windows one of these days.

    Sorry to be slightly off topic but we could imagine the browser adapting to the context, too. There'd be a dropdown menu to select for example "Photoshop context", then it changes tabs according to the open project, and remembers them between sessions.

Question, though. What if your notes are too context specific. So, for example, the note would bind to the specific file you are viewing in vim, whereas the contents of the note would be helpful for any file opened in vim?

  From the video it looks like you can have a note specific to a terminal window open to vim.

    But how do you specify at what level the note should bind? Sometimes, you'd want it at the file-level, sometimes at the vim-level, and sometimes at the terminal-level, I suppose.

      One solution would be to have a hierarchy of contexts displayed in the note app. (Like breadcrumbs in file explorer). User could switch between context levels manually.
