Fast, pretty, ubiquitous

Many people argue over which “notes” application is better: Evernote or OneNote. As a user of both, I say that they are different beasts altogether. Whereas Evernote makes for a great general “filing cabinet” of reference material, OneNote is actually good for… taking actual notes. It is set up like a notebook, with the freedom to write and draw as you please, and many handy one-click styles to set things apart on the fly. Add to this the falling-off-a-log easy syncing and sharing, and it leaves Evernote in the dust as an actual, digital notebook. It’s fast, looks great (and your notes will, too), and it runs everywhere, with almost exactly the same feature set. Highly recommended.
