I also love using Zim, a desktop application wiki. Instead of installing web servers and installing a full blown wiki, this personal wiki is great for jotting down notes and linking between them.

I installed it on a jump drive, i have used it on linux, but i have not in a while because i tend to write when i am stuck somewhere or with my work laptop which is not linux
I downloaded the free trial and it took me a while to get it to work. I really like it.
here is the email i recived from the creator of the sw

There is no Linux-specific version, no. However, you can run The
