[Athen] RE: note taking ap

Been playing a lot with these. All of these except the last has already
been mentioned.

- Evernote is great and will record audio, but the audio is not synced
with your writing. So if you have a lot of notes on a long
presentation/meeting, surfing through the audio is a pain.
- Notability is an amazing app and getting better rapidly. It is
primarily designed for hand written notes. If you set it to record, the
audio will sync with *typed* notes, but not with the handwritten ones. One,
sort of kludgey, way around this is to periodically use the keyboard or
drop in an image. (image placements are also sync'ed with audio--click the
image (or the typed text) and you move to that point in the audio. You can
push notes to the cloud via dropbox. But Notability has no PC or Mac based
equivalent, so notes are output as PDF or RTF with the audio file separate.
- AudioNote allows you to hand write or type notes and each word is
aligned with the audio. When you play back the audio, the words/marks
highlight. It's not the greatest note taking app, but the word by word/mark
by mark audio sync-ing is the closest equivalent to a LiveScribe pen
currently available for the iPad.

You can bet that Notability shortly will have word for word/mark for mark
syncing similar to AudioNote's.
