Background

I have long been interested in note taking. I used to use red composition ledger notebooks in the 80's for note taking.

I then graduated in the mid 90's to Franklin Quest planners which would become Franklin Planner.

The in 1998 I discovered Palm Pilot! My first was a Palm IIIx which at the time had the largest memory and capacity. Then later I moved up to a Palm Vx.

At around this time also work was using Lotus (which became IBM) Notes and I came to like the multimedia and security nature of Notes Storage Facility (.nsf) files. This would be the beginning of my thinking of secure note taking storage.

After the new Millennium I usd a variety of PDA's such as the Centro and the Sharp Zaurus to varying success.

Then around 2003/2004 I discovered wikis. Since I hosted my own web servers this was a natural fit. My first wiki was MoinMoin I then moved to PmWiki after exhaustive research in 2008. I mainly liked it because it was quite extensible , written in PHP and was file rather than database based which meant I could use it with automation to update pages directly on the server rather than through human intervention and chaining.
