Sense is for long texts, which I am currently not writing very often, but should resume to in the near future.
Sense is taking over from Brainstorm for such texts mainly for two reasons: (a) better overview; its navigator pane is collapsible and editable, contrary to Brainstorm’s balloon view and (b) much better support of different locales.

Interesting. I agree that BrainStormWFO is not suited for long texts. I currently use org-mode and wikis for that. Does sense have a link? It’s seemingly impossible to Google it.

I unbelievably forgot to add the latest entrant to my system: The Livescribe Echo and Livescribe Desktop, using Myscript (currently demo only).
It works very, very well for recording notes in lectures, seminars, conferences, classes, etc. I highly recommend it and will make a post highlighting its strengths and weaknesses since this is a tool that many might benefit from.
Best, /Pavi

Great, Pavi, I look forward to reading your thoughts about the Livescribe.
