Simplenote is a cloud-based notes app, with a setup that owes much to Notational Velocity's straightforward design: A simple list of all your text files, which can be narrowed down through search, next to a pane for viewing the text of the selected note.
Where the real magic happens is Simplenote. Still, it’s not a life-changer for most people. An optimized, jumpstarter of a workflow, which I think is a work of art in UI simplicity. On its own, Notational is a super smart rethink of document management and creation. For instance, I have 30,000 words worth of a novel in a single "note," clocking in at 157KB, and I also have a 17 Byte document called "Cocktails" that names two different Manhattan cocktail establishments that were recommended to me. He acknowledges, however, that many people (like me) use it to store much more expansive documents, and the app holds up well under that sort of pressure. Zachary Schneirov recommends using it for short, highly specific notes so that the search doesn't get too many false positives. You can of course make documents about whatever you'd like, and however many you'd like (I currently have 494 notes, including this one), and they all remain totally searchable from a single view.
So I search for "bands" and I get the previously-created note "Bands I should listen to.".I could make a document about the band right then and there, but that might be unmanageable. I search for the band name in my notes, and don't get a result.Somebody tells me about a band I should listen to.The thought process goes something like this:
