Does anyone use either Evernote, or Micro$oft's OneNote for their note taking and note keeping? And if so, what's your preference, and why?
Thanks in advance!

I use the heck out of Evernote. Far better interface and available on any platform. |

I have Evernote and have used it extensively in the past. I have a Nexus tablet (Android) and lately have been using Google Keep. I like it's simplicity, and using Android, I like it's integration with Google. I still use Evernote, but have slowly been transitioning to Keep in the last month or so.
May be available on IDevices, but haven't looked, since I rarely use one.

Evernote is the winner by far. There are standalone apps for Windows, Mac, Android and iOS. Keep has apps for Android only. Evernote does full-text searching of not only text you enter, but also text inside of images and handwriting. (So if you take a picture of a package of oreos, you can alter search "oreos" and it will find it) It also indexes text inside of non-editable PDF's.
Also if you load in a bunch of recipes in Evernote, you're not going to get a bunch of google ads for recipe sites.

I don't get ads in Keep on my Android. And for the desktop version? Three words. Ad Block Plus. Plus, Evernote kinda pissed me off when I had to redo my password last month. |

I've used Notepad++ for years due to its simplicity, but I may have to try Evernote. I like a simple text editor that doesn't get in the way when I'm writing, one that doesn't offer to correct anything and does only what I tell it to do. Later, I'll 'clean up' the copy in Open Office Writer.

They pissed you off by making you change your password once? |

The one time password change took me 2 weeks to resolve..back and forth with their 'tech support'. Ask the question again now. |

Notepad++ is also a great HTML editor. |

Or PHP editor. Java editor. CSS editor.... You get the picture. It's the only text editor I use and have used for about four years now. |

I use it if I happen to be doing something complex from a windows machine, which isn't often. Mainly been using it on Visual Basic stuff. |
