Well, I receive MacUpdate's Daily and often look at new note-taking and
outlining tools when they come out. This one I noticed. It's called
"FO" (no, it doesn't seem to have to do with "Formatting Objects") and
it has a few interesting things I've been looking for.

One of the features I really like is that every item has creation and
modification times. Now, that's what I call note-taking!
It has bookmarks and links, image support, export to several formats,
word/character count, a reorientable notes pane, labels...
It also has a number of quirks and doesn't show OO's maturity. It's
just one of those programs that shows good promise.
For half an hour now I've been documenting FO's cool and uncool
features (in a FO document, of course) and I have about as much items
for both, including qualifiers to things I don't like.
As I said, it's nowhere as mature as OO. But I hope it can serve as an
example for a few features some of us have been looking for...
