Remember how we used to take notes? Pad of paper and a pencil. But that has changed – it’s been a long time since I’ve even picked up a pencil. But with the iPad changing the way we compute, we also have a program that changes the way we take notes.

MagicalPad for iPad is a great way to take notes and more. It’s an outliner, a mind mapper, a note taker and a todo list. It looks like a flow chart system without the shapes. It’s not a flowchart though.

Simply put notes in sections. One section might be your outline. The next might be a note or idea. Now you want to merge the two. With MagicalPad you draw lines from one area to another. Give it a natural flow to ideas.

Maybe you put a note out of place. I remember many times where I would write a note I remembered later. When I went back to review my notes that out-of-place note didn’t make sense. With this app, I can put the note in the right place so it all makes sense later.

MagicalPad is .99 cents in the app store.
