I personally just enter keywords like [IMPORTANT] or [IDEA] or whatever at relevant points in my notes in Brainstorm. I imagine that similar methods can be used in most note-taking applications. Even MS Office’s recent Smart Tags feature could be used perhaps.

As long as one adopts a convention, like putting keywords in brackets, I think it should be quite easy to search notes later, while keeping them in context.

> First of all, ON only allows 9 tags

Can you have more than one tag on an item? If not, is there another way to categorise an item in more than one categories?
