    I'm looking for a good note taking programme for Linux, preferably fully featured. Preferably it would allow me to choose where it stores it's notes. I have tried a few but i would like to see if there are any that i might have overlooked before i settle on one.

    Could you give more details on what you're looking for? Or do you have software from Windows or OSx that you're thinking of?

    Znotes is available as a standalone app or Thunderbird addon. It's probably not full-featured but if you use Thunderbird it might be a runner for you: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/znotes/

    Nevernote (nixnote) is an Evernote clone for Linux that might work for you: http://nevernote.sourceforge.net/

    Thanks for the tips. I know of Nixnote but hadn't heard of the Thunderbird addon. I would be looking for something along those lines. I am interested in Cherrytree and think it is the best one for me but i just want to know if there's anything else i should consider.

    yeah I guess it depends on what you want. I don't think znotes is the greatest note taking application, and the fact that it's a solo developer / owner isn't the best. That said you can set it up so that the notes are stored on dropbox or owncloud. I needed to have access to the same notes on four different computers so this was a win for me.

    I use zim which is a desktop wiki. If you configure it to store its files in your droobox folder you can access from multiple computers
