Real-time Collaboration in OneNote 2003

I gave OneNote a shot when I upgraded to Office 2003 (yes, I know MS Office vs. OpenOffice…I needed to work with a lot of PowerPoint…) and I thought that it was pretty cool. I did do some brainstorming with it and doodling. I think it could have potential. Frankly the only reason I stopped using it and uninstalled it was that I didn’t want to get addicted to it and be bummed when I couldn’t buy it.

I think the price is a tad steep. Up here Staples.ca sells it for $269.76 (plus taxes). Even though the new features sound great in the InternetNews article below, the price tag, I think, will hamper widespread adoption. Sure, large companies might buy it. MS might even through it in as a bonus for buying a lot of licenses of Office. But me, nope I can think of a lot of better ways to spend $270.

Microsoft’s popular note-taking application gets an enterprise-focused makeover.
