They also should minimize the need for user interaction if the user rearranges folders. We just had a somewhat interesting discussion over on the the novo libera forum about hyperlinks. Virtual nodes come close to this idea in Keynote, but filterable/ folderable nodes/tabs really are useful here. The importance with the relation is that I dont want to have to type (or copy/paste) the same data two or three times. It should also be easy to retrieve it and relate it to other things. It should be easy to shove data into the system. The hardest part would be to get a sophisticated enough backend with an easy and intuitive frontend. People are familiar with trees and document formatting. I imagine these types of programs as vast data storage devices with a nice front end so the user can think of things in terms he/she is used to. As you and rjbull mentioned, look at the discussions involving keynote 2. At some point the number of import/export routines becomes too big! I dont think it's a horrible idea, but if you want to take this genre on, it's going to mean a LOT of work. There are quite a few of these on the market and several more already in development. rjbull: I think (heh heh, cant get away from individual preferences in this genre!) that the ideal app would combine the ability to quickly take notes with the ability to go back and assign them a structure. Sorry, I cant resist this discussion! A couple of things I've thought about: Heck, if it was just me, I can't even say which program is the best for me! There's no way we can collectively pick one program as the ultimate.

I think the review will ultimately have to be such that we subcategorize the software out there and say, "Well, if is what you're trying to do, then is the best software for it." So, different programs can be categorized as the "best" depending on what specific task is trying to be accomplished. Everyone has different needs for this type of software. In my opinion, it would be absoutely impossible to do a traditional review where we'd pick a couple of programs as the "best in this category. I know a lot of us would like to see a good review of this genre done here at DC, and we all know how hard that would be to accomplish, so maybe this thread could be a place where ideas can be collected. Anything you want to say, wishlist of features, what you like about existing programs, what you'd like the ideal program to do. To help us track our recruitment effort, please indicate in your cover//motivation letter where (jobsinteaching.ca) you saw this job posting.I don't know if this is a good idea, but I wanted to start a thread where we can all just brainstorm about note-taking software.
