I really like it. In particular, Orgzly for Android works great with this system, so check it out if you want mobile notes as well.&lt;p&gt;The problem is that I also like to take paper notes, and take videos&amp;#x2F;pictures of stuff, and scan documents, and download webpages. Org-mode kinda stinks for embedding external content that isn&amp;#x27;t text? As far as I can tell.&lt;p&gt;I can link to external content, and if I export to HTML it&amp;#x27;ll show up. But... I never export to HTML, because, as you probably already know, it&amp;#x27;s way easier to read notes in an editable format. I can turn on picture rending in Org-mode, but it&amp;#x27;s not responsive, and I can&amp;#x27;t crop the pictures or annotate them with a stylus, or do any of a dozen different things that I want to do.&lt;p&gt;What I&amp;#x27;ve thought about is that I really just want the ability to render HTML&amp;#x2F;CSS inside of an Org-mode buffer, and ideally to be able to set up custom CSS classes that would be applied to every snippet. Just set up a quick region, write some helper functions to compile&amp;#x2F;render the HTML, etc...&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ve been thinking for a while about taking some time off of work to just try and solve the problem. Is it already solved? I know that at one point people were looking into getting webkit embedded into buffers. Did that go anywhere? I guess you can build GTK widgets for Org-mode as well? But then you lose the ability to define custom styles on the fly.</text></comment>

I send emails to the SES address which the hook then appends and schedules to org files on dropbox based on email content.</text></comment>
