Suggestion for Outliner and Note-Compiler

I have been looking into which of the many programs on my computer and elsewhere to use to organize myself for some upcoming trials. One of these is Circus Ponies's Notebook, which I own but [candidly] don't use much at all.

As I am looking into working with Notebook [or some other program], I came across a blog comment on the Mac Law Students Blog which, with pictures and a clear description, explains how the author uses Notebook to keep case notes and such. It's a good commentary and the replies below provide other resources.

An excellent resource in general for a discussion of Mac outliners is the website for About This Particular Macintosh [ATPM]. There are more options than one has time to test out.
