What's a good note taking app?

comper · Nov 16, 2012, 03:31 PM

I used to use OneNote to take notes on my windows laptop, but I don't think they have a version available for Mac.

Are there any applications that are similar to OneNote for Macs? Or what apps are you guys using to take notes (in college)?

Evernote

Evernote x 1 million.

Free, syncs across devices and platforms. Brilliant and simple.

Zengobi's Curio is the closest thing to OneNote for the Mac. I use both (OneNote on my Windows laptop at work, and Curio at home on my Mac).

You could also check out MacJournal (pretty good if you are simply taking notes), or DevonThink if your studies involve lots of research material or reference documents.

I second the Curio suggestion, and I also really like Circus Ponies Notebooks. I've written about how I use CPN here:

I mostly use the writing pages on CPN, but they have notes pages that are very similar in features to OneNote.
