Evernote

Evernote is an outstanding note-taking application that allows you to take your notes with you where ever you go.

Notes are stored remotely on Evernote’s servers so you have access to them from any computer or smart phone. Evernote can store text notes, screen shots, or any other sort of image. It allows you to organize your notes into “notebooks”, give them tags for easier searching, and choose if you want them local only to your computer, or uploaded to the server. The basic application is a free product with very minimal advertising (a small 100×100 pixel add in the lower left corner), but has paid versions available for users with a high amount of data to store — more then 50MB a month. But this means you get 1000’s of notes a month at no cost. And nothing’s better then free, right?
