OneNote is a digital notebook for creating and storing all your notes, links, webpages, sketches and media—all in one place! The product has been around since 2003 and there are a few exciting new features in the 2013 edition.
Information in Microsoft OneNote is saved in Pages, which are organized into Sections within Notebooks. OneNote’s interface is an electronic version of a binder that is organized by colored tabs, so you can easily find what you need by subject. OneNote notebooks are designed for collecting, organizing, and sharing information gathered from various users and sources.
This very cool tool promotes multi-user collaboration by gathering users’ notes (handwritten or typed), drawings, audio commentaries, etc. and storing them in the cloud so everyone has access at all times. Notes are automatically saved as soon as they are entered and they are searchable. You can use OneNote Mobile apps on Windows Phone, iOS and Android phones.
OneNote syncs with SkyDrive and SharePoint, so you can send your fellow collaborators a link to the file and be assured that everyone is viewing the most current version of your document.
Images, maps, documents, videos, Excel spreadsheets and more can be imbedded into your notes to drive the point home. With one click, you can convert tables in your notes into embedded Excel spreadsheets.
A feature called Inking allows users to draw, erase, and edit with a finger, stylus or mouse. You can tap to choose a pen color, then swipe pick the shade you want, tap to change text size and swipe to pick how large you make it. If you’d rather write than type, OneNote can convert your handwriting into text.
OneNote’s Clipping Tool lets you take screen clippings (a cropped screenshot) and imbed them into any notebook in OneNote.
Outlook meeting integration. You can connect notes to Outlook meetings through Outlook, which will create a link to the OneNote-based notes for that meeting. Then, in OneNote, you’ll see a header related to the Outlook meeting in those notes.
