So, where does Tinderbox fit into all this? I’m not too sure… I’ve experimented with it a bit over the years. I’ve got a “take note” AppleScript which prompts me for a title, then makes a markdown document in my notes database with the title set, and opens it up in iA Writer for me to edit. I really, really like doing a search for something, and then being reminded of notes that address a similar topic… all without me doing any work of filing or tagging this stuff. And “see also” helps me find things that have fallen off my radar. I love a few things about it… the search is fast and powerful. I’m a bit bummed that this thread hasn’t gotten more action, because it’s one of the areas that I struggle with most when it comes to applying Tinderbox. I use tags for filtering the immediately functional notes, which are part of the current projection, from the “may be one day” stuff which will remain (indexed) in Devonthink. I want focused, project based notes to enter TB arena. I want to do some filtering of notes in Devonthink before I push them to TB. But, TB and markdown are not as such friendly to each other. If you are into Markdown, you have many choices. These two appliations store standard RTF files.
The issue with NoteAway is–the filename came out with a lot of number junk. It also transparently stores the file in a Finder folder: the folder can be indexed to Devonthink. I also has this floating feature: very useful for writign notes while reading on the side. NoteAway supports directly tagging the notes.
I have also tried a nice application called NoteAway for this task. I have to call the note via Alfred to assign a tag to the note. The only drawback to Curiota is it doesn’t directly support tagging. I typically snap them to Curiota using Popclip addon.

I also write short paragraphs, reference notes from Webpages and pdf files. I drag them from Devonthink to TB when I need them (based on the tags I assigned to the notes). The Curiota file folder is indexed in Devonthink. I use Curiota to store my random, everyday notes.
