A stack of nifty features!

I just went through the OneNote Guide (Beta 2) notebook and found out that the 2007 version boasts many, many interesting features. Some notable features follows:

  • Improved Search: basically, this is a feature of all 2007 Microsoft Office System (notice the naming structure change). Before using this feature, you will need to download a Beta version of Windows Desktop Search. After installation, OneNote now able to search for texts, words in images, even words in audio recordings!
  • PDF Publishing: also a feature of all 2007 Microsoft Office System. You can save your notes as PDF, and distribute it by email to anyone with Acrobat Reader.
  • Note Syncing: it enables you to use the same (synced) notes between computers without the need to copy the files.
  • Note Hyperlinking: you can link to an existing note from another note. Usage example is building a Table of Content for your notes.
  • Simple Calculators: just type “1+1=“ or “sin(30)=“ and space, OneNote will fill in the result.
  • Print-to-OneNote: now any program can put a mark on OneNote! (and it's searchable, too)
  • File Attachment: now OneNote can hold any file!
  • Video Recording: for complete experience of an event.

Personally, I liked the improved search and print-to-OneNote features. Just like what it said, OneNote is like wiki on steroids now!

New Search feature : Will we have a "search and gather" function where all the text blocks containing a certain string are gathered together on a new page, for example.
