Please send us your notes!
That being said I would encourage you all to upload your notes to the team!

Why: Why do we want your notes? That is a great question and really it is
about understanding how you take notes. How do people organize their notes?
Do users use note flags? How do you ink? What do your notes look like? Do
you use fonts and styles for a lot of items? Do your notes look right after
upgrading?

What: We are looking @ getting OneNote 2003 notes as well as OneNote 2007
notes. If you are using OneNote 2003 please create a zip file of your notes
that you would like to submit to us. If you are using OneNote 2007 please
use a OneNote package (learn how to create one). Please include your email
address in the filename so that we can know who you were : ) For example I
would upload my notes with this filename: "on12beta@micorsoft.com - Class
Notes 2005.onepkg".

How: You can upload your notes on this site:
https://sftus.one.microsoft.com/choo...5-c39605fb6d9e
but you need a password to do so. Since I can't email out the password
please email me: on12beta@microsoft.com or use the email button @ the top of
this page and request the password. Once I get it from you then I will send
you the password and you can upload the file. You can also email me the file
directly but email attachments are capped @ ~8megs and this site will
support files up to 1.9gigs so it is a better location.



Note: Don't upload private or sensitive data! We will only be using these
notes internally for the product team, but don't send us anything that you
aren't comfortable having other people read.

How I take notes is very limited by what I know OneNote will and will not
do. Be careful not to assume that the format of someone's notes is their
preferred format. Do not assume that a preponderance of a particular
format means that is what the customer base wants. This will become a
self fulfilling exercise where the limits of the product dictate the
note-taking styles used, causing you to conclude that people prefer those
styles, and therefore concluding that OneNote has all the functionality
required to create notes in that most popular style. It could become
nothing but an expensive statistical self-back-slapping endeavor.

Well put and I take this to heart.

If you would like to share some thoughts on how you are 'forced' into using
OneNote, instead of how you would 'naturally' take notes please let me/us
know.

I know for me when I joined the OneNote team, I used to take notes with
Notepad & Word and OneNote fit well for most of my note taking experiences.
Do you not find this to be the case?

Please give us feedback so that we can help customers like yourself (and the
10% of the time where OneNote doesn't work well for me).

Thanks!
