[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]iPad with keyboard case and Microsoft OneNote. I started using it last year with my new job and it's a total game changer. Incredibly powerful app. Also great for marking up PDFs. [/quote] I tried OneNote years ago and just didn't get it, felt so cumbersome. What makes it so much better over just a folder of documents?[/quote] PP here: My "folder of documents" is an un-organized mess of paper. And then I need to keep all those folders in a file cabinet or drawer. And some of the info I have is sensitive, so it needs to be locked up overnight. OneNote keeps me much more organized with its color-coded subject tabs. Then within each tab for a subject/project, I have separate OneNote documents with copious notes. For an individual meeting on that topic/project, I do a separate OneNote. If there's a slide deck associated with that meeting, I can attach it directly to the my meeting notes so I can always find the associated materials I discussed with staff. In short, OneNote allows me to very easily find and reference my previous notes. I can do a keyword search and find the info in less than 5-10 seconds. It's been extremely useful in my current job. We are a Microsoft Office, so all my OneNote stuff + laptop files are saved into the cloud. Can also pull up my laptop's desktop on my iPad and access remotely. It's really great. [/quote]
