I am still investigating which one I like best. The suggestions all seem to split between two different ideas: * the ability to store and categorized lots of bits of information (yojimbo, journler) * and the ability to put lots of information into one document (voodoopad, tiddlywiki) I can definitely see a use for both and I may have to pick one solution from both categories to fully satisfy my needs.

It's similar to Yojimbo. I haven't taken a look how it stores it's data though. http://journler.com/ Journler’s worth a look too. It’s similar to Yojimbo.

It stores the pages as text in the filesytem. In the end, though, I went back to regular text files.

I use KwikWiki (a Java wiki I wrote myself) and run it on my laptop. It stores everything in plain text files so that Spotlight can index it and it has its own full-text search as well.

It doesn't store it in plain text; it stores it in your keychain making it secure and backup-able (if that's even a word hehe). 1passwd rocks my world.
