Best Note Taking Application for PC?
I have used a few note taking apps. I have a touch screen laptop that I love and I am trying to phase out pen & paper.
The advantage of pen and paper is that it is so flexible. Using the grids on the pages of your average laboratory notebook you can do everything from
draw neat looking aromatic rings to write reports. However, most PC applications are limited. I have yet to find a good app that can replace my lab
book.
One Note, an office product is okay. It allows you to draw and type to some extent. However, it is very slow, owned by Microsoft, and is very limited.
For example, there is no plugin for drawing molecular structures.
Evernote is good, but all you can do with it is type and insert pictures. Its advantage is that it works well in the workplace and is streamlined for
speed. It has a very good user interface.
Does anyone know of any programs that would be a good replacement for a lab notebook?
It would be cool if someone could help me program one. It would need to:
1) Have a word processor
2) Be able to recognize molecular structures drawn and convert them
3) Have a filing system and table of contents
