Noteworthy+ Is a Free, Keyboard Driven Notes App for Your Menubar

Mac: You won't find a shortage of notes apps for the Mac of all shapes and sizes. Noteworthy+ isn't all that different, but it sits in the menubar, comes with handy keyboard shortcuts, and is completely free.

You can create a new note, add some formatting, and that's about it. The whole app can be used with keyboard shortcuts, so it's easy to navigate without futzing about in menus. Noteworthy+ certainly isn't for everyone, but it's worth a look if you just need a simple and free notes app that lives in your menubar.
