OneNote Training links

Recently I got a question from a customer who wanted to get some training on OneNote 2007. I looked around and got the following information from the OneNote Test team and I can't agree more with their recommendations. First, I would recommend spending 30 minutes reading the OneNote Guide (that Olya worked so hard on and did an excellent job); the guide gives you all the information that you need right within OneNote. Also, please check out Office Online which is continually updated with new and improved content.

 

• Read the OneNote 2007 Guide notebook: Since "doing" is sometimes the best form of learning, our #1 recommendation is to boot OneNote and read the "OneNote 2007 Guide" notebook. You already have it in your list of notebooks but you may not have even noticed it. Everyone gets this by default and it has been hand crafted by the team to let you know what OneNote is, why you might want to use OneNote, and then chock full of interactive scenarios and features. We promise you that if you go through the OneNote guide completely, you'll be a pro.

  I like what you've done here but I'm not happy with onenote. I'm a student and I tried taking notes using onenote. It wasn't as useful as the traditional paper notes! I think if I have a tablet then onenote is probably helpful. If you have ok typing speed like me (~40 wpm), taking notes when a professor is explaining is difficult!
