Marc Orchant, who most of you will remember as the sole voice of this Microsoft-focused blog for many months before his departure, today had an article posted at Microsoft's Office 2007 preview site. The article highlights all of the new innovations in OneNote that have turned it into a real personal information hub, collaboration powerhouse as well as a time and task management tool. Rather than steal any of Marc`s thunder, I`ll just point you to the article which is well worth a read.

James Kendrick over at jkontherun has posted his first impressions of working with OneNote Mobile, the much anticipated add-on for OneNote 2007. So far he's giving it a thumbs up, save for the fact that it appears not to be able to handle ink input, or the ability to sync ink back to the mobile unit. It seems OneNote Mobile was written initially for SmartPhones which lack a touchscreen for input, but I wonder if the decision not to support ink (at least initially) is out of concern for file size? That being said, Pocket PCs handle ink input just fine, thank you very much, so JK's probably on to something. Here's hoping they add ink before the final release. It would be nice to have a quick ink input method for those of us that are not lucky enough to have Tablet PCs!

Chris Pratley is they guy that is in charge of OneNote at Microsoft, so when he talks about OneNote features, we listen. Today he's got a great post on his blog about the different ways in which OneNote 2007 and Outlook (both 2003 and 2007) are more tightly integrated than ever before. For those of you that haven't had the pleasure, OneNote is a dark corner of Microsoft Office that many people don't know about, but should. It's a note taking application, but to characterize it in that way is to do it a disservice; it's really an information collection and organization framework. Do yourself a favor and acquaint yourself with OneNote, and you'll soon find why it is very interesting to see why OneNote and Outlook have become "best buddies".
