The development of Microsoft OneNote

New York Times: "The notion of flexible software to augment the human mind was advanced by the pioneering computer researcher Douglas C. Engelbart ... One such program is OneNote, a recently added component of Microsoft Office 2003. Created by a small group of Microsoft developers pursuing a tool that would be more flexible than current word processors, OneNote is Microsoft's first effort to support all of the random note-taking, organizing, sketching and document collecting that students, researchers, planners and office workers do during a normal day.oftware that aims to carry out Engelbart's original vision is beginning to appear." I use OneNote virtually every single day and highly recommend it. And if you think it's a glorified word processor or, God forbid, that your pathetic little text editor works just fine, thank you very much, you have no idea what you're talking about. Very interesting. My own OneNote preview is here.
