Does anyone use MS OneNote for their studies?
I'm playing around with the 60-day trial, and it's pretty slick. It seems like a great way to organize large amounts of information (including text, images, audio, video etc.). Everything is arranged in notebooks. Inside of those, you create sections and individual pages. For example, I have a 291 notebook with sections for CBT Nuggets, Trascender, MS Press, and Misc., each of which have pages of notes arranged by chapter, etc.
There's a lot of really neat features. If you copy-and-paste data from somewhere, it includes the date and url. You can do selective screen captures (win key + s), and simply draw a rectangle around what you want. It's a slick way to capture tables or other specially formatted data. I've just scratched the surface, but it seems like something I'll end up purchasing.
Has anyone else played around with it at all?
Is there anything similar that you prefer?
I encourage people to download the trial and play around with it:

I haven't seen any type of Open Source alternative. The only thing remotely close to it I've seen is Tomboy for linux and even that wasn't in the same ballpark. Same sport, but not the same field.
