For organizing lore and information, a wiki is in my opinion the best way. You can use a wiki tool as a notepad at first, and always go back end reorganize the article later if you want. Its also very easy to link and group information together. Wikidpad is a great free resource for this, the only downside is that's its an offline tool and its lacking image support. Because of these limitations, and because I wanted map and time/chronology support integrated with the wiki, I created my own tool, ChronoGrapher.

eduPad

Real-time collaborative text-editor. No account required. Edits highlighted in authors color.

If you work together with others I can recommend edupad, an online notepad everyone who has the link can join in on writing on the document without registration. We are three people working on a world and edupad has saved us so much time.
