Subject: Taking notes / excerptions with emacs

Hi There!
Until now I've taken notes and did extracts/abstracts of the books I had
to read by hand, i.e. with pen & paper.
Now I want to switch to the digital world... What could be more natural
than using emacs, because I already use it with AucTeX to create my
latex documents.
What I basically need is ordering of the abstracts and full-text search
for my notes. Printing the notes would be useful, too.
Google brought up several modes; org-mode seems promising, but I never
tried it before.
How do you take notes? Any special suggestions? I thought it could be
helpful to ask on this list before trying out several modes...
Thanks & Regards,
Fred
