I'm currently using Evernote and mostly like it - it allows me to quickly/easily take notes, but the actual interface for viewing and organising them IMO leaves a lot to be desired. You're also looking at I think $45p/a for the ability to download this onto my iPhone/iPad which is maybe a little excessive.
I was wondering if there are any alternatives I haven't tried? The closest I've found so far is Springpad, it's maybe a little OTT with it's Pinterest-esque features but they're easily ignored, the main problem is the complete lack of desktop app.
I've mostly found Evernote okay, but I'm going away this weekend and wanted to store some information about where we're going (a few beaches listed alongside a picture and a post code, nice restaurants along with post code, things to see in the area etc etc) which I can do okay with Evernote (despite the somewhat clunky interface) but if I don't have internet, I won't be able to access them. This would be made infinitely worse when I go abroad and have to turn off data roaming.
I was wondering if there are any alternatives I should look into, or whether I should bite the bullet and pay the $45p/a? Thank you
