glad to hear its accessible.
I have this as part of the microsoft package but did not know what it did or 
how to use it. Now that its accessible, I'll look into it.
Does it have templates or categories for you to write notes in?

Hello,
sorry for the multiple emails, but I forgot to say the most important 
feature:
One note saves in real time, so you never have to hit ctrl S to save. after 
every key you hit it saves.
There is also a misc. folder that you can throw all your junk like the 
schedule you try to follow each day and your list of things to do.
Thanks,

Brandon Keith Biggs

Hello,
I thought you note taking students would love to check this out. You know 
that feeling when you have over 20 word documents open, alt tabbing through 
notes to write a paper? One note is a simulation of a notebook, that is 
super accessible. Now you can have all your notes in one application and 
just use hot keys to move between documents.
You can export your notes to a PDF, word and an interactable virtual viewer.
to learn more, listen to his podcast and try it out!

He is also open to suggestions for features.

Thanks,

As we near the middle of 2013, Do It Blind is ecstatic to announce a new 
script!  We have been working long and hard on OneNote by Microsoft.  We now 
have OneNote Blind!  OneNote is a word processing program included in many 
of the Microsoft Office packages.  It is a great alternative to Word and has 
many different features which make life easy.  In a nutshell, OneNote is a 
virtual notebook.  You can create different notebooks, sections within the 
notebook, and pages within the sections.  It is a phenomenal tool to 
organize thoughts, letters, and projects all in one program and all 
accessible from one screen.  You no longer have to open up several word 
documents and switch back and forth.  With OneNote, everything is on the 
same screen.  Because of the amazing features, we decided to script OneNote 
and create OneNote Blind.  It is now fully accessible to the visually 
impaired and blind users!  We are absolutely positive this will be a 
tremendous tool for blind people.  It is easy to navigate through notebooks, 
sections, and pages.  You can scroll through all of your notes with just the 
touch of the tab key.  We are confident OneNote Blind will make your life 
easier and make your notes more organized and easy to access.
