EverNote, which probably is the best note taking software after Microsoft OneNote, is available for free if you download it within 24 hours.
Think of EverNote as a desktop version of Google Notebook or Zoho Notebook but with tons of extra feature.
EverNote has an inbuilt OCR so you can search for text inside images or you can take snapshots of magazines and newspaper clippings with your mobile phone and EverNote will convert that text to digital format.
The new version of EverNote 2.2 is compatible with Google Desktop Search meaning you can use GDS to search through your text notes and web clippings.
The full licensed version of EverNote 2.2 costs $50 but you can have it for free from the GOTD website here.

Seems a lot of companies are offering their products free for a day to get some publicity :)

Just one thing…Evernote (or whatever, lol, bad pun I know) looks fugly as hell. If there is one thing I hate, its the old, ugly, WMP9 interface. Shivers me timbers.

Yes, giveaways are now becoming popular.
The only problem with this offer is that it requires activation - so if you reinstall the OS, the software license becomes unusable as the time limit has passed.

Activation is more to prevent someone from mirroring your files and distributing them later and getting easy fixes.
