I’ve managed to avoid both Evernote and OneNote for now. I don’t have a single ‘bag’ for everything. Some plain text notes and URLs go into WorkFlowy (using the “Clip to WorkFlowy” extension in Chrome), which syncs across all my devices.

Random web pages that I decide to keep get saved/printed as PDF (in Chrome) straight into Google Drive, which is cross-platform. I can use hierarchical folders, and while there are no tags, you can add comments to a file, and files and image content are searchable.

If a web page or file is relevant to some of my past or current projects, and if I’m not on my Windows machine, it gets emailed to my Gmail account (using “Send this link with Gmail” Chrome extension), and then processed later to end up in either Surfulater or ConnectedText (neither of which are cross-platform).
