starting soon, I was wondering what tools can be used to take
notes for lectures, classes, meetings, etc. in Ubuntu, or on Linux
in general.<br>
<br>
There are popular tools like MS OneNote and Evernote, but neither
support Linux (granted they can apparently work with Wine but
that's not the focus)<br>
<br>
So, does anyone on here use or know of any decent software/methods
to use?<br>

I found tomboy notes to be useful since you can auto-hyperlink
utility is very practical. If you use external pen to take
handwritten notes there is xjournal, but not all of the hardware
seem to be easy to set up. <br>
<br>
I also found freemind (I use sciplore at work) to be useful for
taking notes during a braindump session. <br>
<br>
If you need to take notes with equations it might be worth learning
a bit of LaTeX since it probably is quicker to type
\frac{x^2}{y_2(c^3+v^{2x})} than looking up the menus and clicking
with the mouse. <br>
