Comment on Ask HN: What note taking app do you use and why?

Comments

For all my GTD-style note taking I'm using Things. I stuff everything that I need to remember into its inbox as soon as I think about it. Adding context + sorting happens at a later date once I can sit down and give more details.

The one thing I don't have is a general "reference" system. Once I've finished with a task / project / etc. I want to be able to archive it into a wiki-type system. But I also want to be able to query structured data out of it too.

The closest thing I can think of is writing mini-wiki pages. Because they're mini wiki pages, a screen should be able to show multiple pages at once. There's something there, I'm just not sure what.
