I like to put the date first to tell new notes from old at a glance.

Digital note sharing is a great way to distribute to-do lists, shopping lists, notes on home renovations, birthday gift lists, and so on with your family or roommates.

The only problem is convincing others to sign up for a new account for your preferred service in order to enjoy all the note-sharing glory.

There are a ton of digital note sharing services out there, but if youre a PCWorld reader, theres a good chance that you and everyone in your home already has a Microsoft account.

That makes sharing notes and other items via OneNote much easier since you wont need to create a new account to use it.

Plus, OneNote is a fantastic free app thats built for sharing notes in large groups.

First, youll need to download OneNote from the Windows Store or grab the desktop version.

Windows 10 users have the Windows Store version pre-installed by default.

Alternatively, you can use the web app version at Office.com.

Once youve downloaded the app, get it up and running by signing in with your Microsoft account.

These instructions will be based on the desktop version for Windows, but other versions of OneNote will work similarly.

After youre signed in, first time users will automatically see a Personal notebook.

OneNote works just like a physical tabbed notebook or binder for school.

A notebook is a large collection of notes grouped together, then there are tabs (called sections) for smaller subjects such as shopping lists, gift ideas, garden planning, recipes, and so on.

Finally, each section has pages where you keep the actual notes.

For a detailed breakdown, check out our primer on OneNote basics.

To create our notebook, click the File tab at the top of the menu icon in the upper left corner of OneNote and then click New on the left-hand side.

I call mine Family Notebook, but you can use something more imaginative if you prefer.

After a few seconds, OneNote will display an invitation to share the new notebook with others.

OneNote will now open your newly created notebook, which includes one tab at the top named New Section 1.

Right-click that, select Rename, then type in Shopping lists and hit Enter.

To create more sections, click the plus sign next to the first section.

A list of pages for our new shopping list section runs down the right side of the notebook.

By default you have one untitled page that you can rename by typing on the line at the top of the page.
