How important are notes for you?

Writing down and saving notes is very important for me. Now and than I publish them into my blog posts but most of them are sitting in my Microsoft OneNote workbooks.  Last year I listened to a Technet podcast and after installing and creating my first notebook I never want to miss this wonderful feature in my IT toolset.

Microsoft OneNote 2007 is the only place to gather my notes and information, run powerfull search queries from text and screenprints and share the workbooks with file or sharepoint document libraries. Microsoft Office OneNote 2007 is an integrated part of the 2007 Microsoft Office system that makes it easy to gather, organize, find, and share your notes and information more efficiently and effectively.

Microsoft Office OneNote 2007 is available as single installation setup or included in Professional/Enterprise/Ultimate editions of Microsoft Office 2007 suites.

Screenshot above shows the GUI of OneNote 2007. On the left side you can create hand-full of workbooks without the need to scroll, sections and sections groups. Clip, convert from picture to text and search are my favorite features. Every month I create separate section group and name the pages based on the week number and topic I am creating notes for.

In the subpages of “Notes” page I will publish my notes. These topics are used for my own reference but can help you if you are looking for them.
