Thinktype works a lot like notational velocity (write and search at the same time), but it's actually even easoer because it doesn't have titles. You can write the entire note from the searchfield.

I end up taking linear notes in a text file, with un-resolved or in-progress items at the bottom. They get pushed downward linearly until they are finished, at which point they get immortalized in the greppable daily log above. Requires a lot of discipline and doesn't have a lot of structure, but having the "working area" next to the journal has served me well. I use vimwiki[1] for most of the editing, in addition... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
