I second SQLite. :) It's basically perfect for a lightweight database.

Though I question the types of information you have and what you
do with it. If it's just like configuration and documentation to
remind yourself of commands and APIs and such then I might
suggest you instead just use shell scripts/config files and man
pages or PODs and version it all with Git (possibly in different
repos). :) You can create a public repository on one of the DVCS
Web sites and make it available where ever you go. :) That way
all of your stuff is only a clone away.

For example, I try to keep all of my non-sensitive dotfiles in my
'rc' repository: https://github.com/bamccaig/rc/

This way when I login to a new system for the first time I just
clone my rc repo from GitHub and create symlinks and that fast I
have all of my personal configuration setup. :)
