Note Taking

shorter texts (normally)
catch ideas as they fly by
quickly jot down information that you need to remember (and don’t have time to investigate right now)
save important information snippets that need to be readily available anywhere and anytime (e.g. phone numbers, addresses, names, web addresses etc.)
to do-lists, shopping lists etc
basic formatting needs
need for cross platform compatibility for maximum accessibility on the go
notes are typically not published (or printed) but you may want to share your notes
