Software and Tools Poker Forums

Hi,

Have been trying to take notes while watching videos, but the Microsoft Word isn't really the thing for that. Since it's made for writting longer texts, and I would like something lighter.

Someone got tips what setup to use for Word to give it a more notetaking look?

Would like some simple free softwares just with the simplest features.

What do you use for notetaking?

In Episode 1 of the Haj School WiltOnTilt recommends Post It note software.

You get a 30 day trial. Frm memory it's about $10 to buy. Very good. For explanation of how to use, watch the Haj School. It can move around your desktop easily click on and off able.

PS. I got engaged yesterday, and have lots of congratulations messages on Facebook from friends to reply to, but instead I'm writing this. About Post It notes? Priorities?

I maybe didn't get the question but why not just use "Sticky Notes" which is integrated in Windows?

I use pen and paper. I feel like the physical act of writing sticks in my brain more, and easier to reference/read back over.

I usually just use Google Docs and print that out when I'm done. When I feel like making a small note I use sticky notes for placing those post-it's on my desktop

Memento is good; a bit basic, but free.

Well there is some proggie called 'note caddy' that makes notes automatically, but i think the problem is it needs to be custumized by yourself plus it costs 50 bucks there is a monthly trial i think. There is some big post on 2+2 about it you should check it out there are some people that really like it.

Sticky Notes isn't integrated into Windows XP, fairly sure its in Vista and Windows 7 though.

yep

I'm a great fan of notepad + printer

http://evernote.com/ is awesome for taking notes for videos etc. Really recommend it

Note Caddy is one of the most interesting poker software tools I have ever purchased. It is super powerful, ridiculously customizable and is seamlessly integrated with the two major poker database softwares. Just got it this weekend and I already think it is the most useful additions I have made to my poker education. I would love to see an episode of tool tips on this software. I see it was just breezed over here but for anyone who wants a tool that takes your raw stats and turns it into usable info on the table I think this will be must have. As it adds notes automatically about shown hands you quickly get visible ranges building up for 3bets, limps, cold calling. Pretty great tool. I recommend the trial to anyone. Micro stakes players can even pay the $50 on an installment plan. Nice.
