This is quick and simple. But I prefer "Notes" - not easy to find with such a basic name: it's at www.ayanamichan.com/richard/notes/ or www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macos/9605. It has the advantages that each page can be named and listed in a sidebar, making it very easy to manage: for example, I have a category called "Computing" with subsections for online access details, serial numbers, jottings from MacFixit, etc.

I have been trying to find something to keep little notes in. Most things are to complex. Keeping a text file around is problematic due to my habit of sticking the files in folders and forgetting. This is exactly what I needed. Launches fast too. THANKS!!!!
