: Re: What would be a good way of electronically organizing my aphorisms? I have been writing aphorisms for the most part of my life. Up to now, I noted them down in (real-life, paper) notebooks.

+1 for Evernote. Its nice, clean, easy and has a decent iOS app. It's been a while since I've used it but I believe it has all your requests. I would advise keeping on with the notebook as well. I have gadgets coming out the ears and they are great for capturing what I want to remember immediately.

I find it can be somewhat transient, however. The information is so quickly saved and filed, it does not engrave itself on my mind. I've noticed this with all kinds of note taking. So I always write out my key ideas in a mini-moleskine in addition to a digital version. There is also some part of cognition that I find looks at hand writing differently. I suspect it has to do with translation of pen strokes or something, but I will often catch myself skimming with digital source. Not so with my written 'mess.'

I use digital to create an easily browsed library. I use Neo Finder because it sorts almost anything and is just a beast. It's bucks which is a lot these days, but like I said, it does everything and it does it all well. Very powerful. Might be a bit extra for your needs in which case checkout Evernote.
