I’ve used Brainstorm very well along with UltraRecall; for every project I have a Brainstorm file called xxxproject-notes. This is maintained in the project directory and linked/imported within UR.

This way I have all my project notes at hand as long as I have my main UR file with me (it’s always in my USB stick) and I can update them anywhere. For text notes, I don’t think anything beats Brainstorm. Now, if it could work in OLE mode, one could actually see the content from within the UR window…
