I use a Moleskine and an pen. Works everywhere, never crashes, no dependency on a third party.

Two problems with your solution: No backups in case of loss/theft and having to carry around extra items all the time. I'd rather use a phone to take notes.

For anyone else who wants to know what this is without signing in: http://www.google.com/keep/ It looks like Google's taking on Evernote with Keep.

I don't think Google Keep is anywhere near a competitor of Evernote. Keep is a different class of application. More of a to do list or quick note manager. Whereas evernote is a full blown digital notebook with an extensive feature list. Its like comparing Microsoft One Note to the iPhone notepad.

Right?

sure it is not perfect, but whenever I used a digital note taking thing I felt I was using the app to procrastinate rather than doing the real work. It might just be me, but it does not happen with a classical note book + I can scribble in it as well.

The best thing about a 2650x1440 monitor is that all my Google Keep to do lists fit on the screen without scrolling. I feel so much better now.

Keep until discontinued?

Exactly. Extremely simple with tones of different solutions... It's just a side-project with no income that soon will be discharged.
