Keeping track of info

Question

My memory is not the best, so I like to keep a blog using WordPress which I keep track of all the programming and IT related things I learn. This way, when I need it again I can just search and go back and look at it.

Using WordPress has been good, but its editing really sucks and I would like something with more of a plain text system.

I know many other people do this. If you do, can you recommend the system you use? Here's mine so far http://knife-bst.com/tech/

As you can see with git commands -- it becomes a big -. So WordPress really is not working too well.

Answer 1

This is just the kind of thing Evernote is for.

Answer 2

I recommend google docs and spreadsheets. It's excellent for this sort of thing!

Answer 3

Why not use a wiki? It will take care of maintaining all of its own history, and editing is not that difficult.
