I would second this too if you are an emacs user. If you are a vim user, then take a look at this vim clone of org-mode. https://github.com/hsitz/VimOrganizer -- Suvayu Open source is the future.

Hi, If you under KDE, you can choose basKet too, if you like hierarchic organised notetaking, and notekeeper, Jpilot, and more. Digg around PIMs, and such.
