I haven't used note-taking apps extensively, I use Google Docs to write things done (not exactly 'note-taking') most of the time. What I've noticed is that I frequently need to link to other docs when I'm only mentioning a high-level overview in my current doc. Some examples: * When I'm writing a design doc, I need to reference docs that record the severity and symptoms of the problems that I'm solving with my design, docs in the past that tried solving the same problems, etc. * When I'm writing an overview for other readers or just for personal organization, it goes without saying that I'll make references to existing docs.
Digest/Reminder: I think it'll be a killer feature of any card/snippet-based note-taking app! Too often, brief notes are jot down and left to rot. Some notes are intended for that - I wrote it down just to get it out of my immediate working memory, not that I intend to do it in the near future. But for some notes, I do actually want to be reminded to organize (i.e., create a personal and internal structure over) them, esp. for reading notes. WeChat isn't frequently used outside of Asia(?), but a thoughtful and automated digest sent through email or phone notification could achieve something similar.
