I have a few different pieces of software that I use routinely.

At work, on my PC, I use Outlook 2003(Our corporate standard)and also Onenote 2007. I have been using Onenote for quite some time, but have just discovered the joy of shared notebooks. I am in the States, but work with a group in the UK. We keep a shared notebook on a Sharepoint server, and we can easily move information back and forth.

In my real life, I use a MacBook. I have a couple of needs. One is for storage, searching, and organizing of scientific literature. For that I use Papers(http://mekentosj.com/papers/). It’s a great piece of software, but there are some others out there like bookends, and sente. These programs are designed to search the literature repositories like Pubmed, store the papers in the program as PDF files, and allow you to search and sort them. Great for someone who uses a lot of literature.

I am also using other programs. I have Devonthink Pro, Eaglefiler, and now that I have Leopard, I am also running Together from Reinvented Software. Each of these programs have different strengths, but are ver similar. My favorite on Tiger was Devonthink. But I am leaning a little bit towards Together.

I also use Notetaker.
