Liking Simplenote on OS X, and liking the Chrome extension as well.
But I can't seem to get it to default to the new interface; the following message appears at every go:
>This is our old web interface. Your browser seems capable of the full Simplenote web app!
I've poked around in Simplenote's preferences, with no luck so far ...

Bah, no Android app. And I'm not always within reach of an online connection (whether due to distance, wanting to save battery, or was running low on Internet credit) so it'd be good to have access offline.

Simplenote's a red herring. All you need is a Dropbox or iCloud or other syncing service (if you're on iOS, Dropbox for now and maybe iCloud later) and you vastly broaden the field of text editors you can use.
iOS alone has far better editors than Simplenote (I prefer Nebulous and Notesy), and not being tied to Simplenote's API lets you use anything you want on the PC side, even Vim/Emacs.
Any smartphone/tablet text editor that's worth a damn is Dropbox-compatible.

Simplenote directly supports Dropbox and will happily save your notes there. I love Dropbox top, but I use it for different kinds of things.
I moved to the apps listed in the FPP link 6 or 12 months ago and have been very, very happy with them. I wasn't looking to replace my word processor or file synching tools. I just wanted to replace my phone's Notes app with a reliable cloud-syncing alternative. I write down a thought or take notes on whatever device I'm using and they're there waiting for me next time, without having to think about making that happen. Some of my colleagues use Evernote for this, but it seems like they're often complaining aloud about waiting for it to open, or about something important they failed to save. I want to like Evernote, and I keep it installed, but it just feels too heavy and slow for me. Simplenote is just what I wanted.

There is an Emacs package for SN, but last I saw it was still in alpha. I used it and didn't care for the UI.
Don't get me wrong, SN's great, but I don't see the point of having a separate syncing service just for text when Dropbox works just fine. Dropbox plus text editors plus Multimarkdown means I haven't written a thing in Word or any other word processor for months. It's one of the best computer-related things that has ever happened to me.

Ah, I do the same things by sending myself email in Gmail and saving notes for myself in Google Tasks. I don't want the ability to also add audio to notes (too simultaneously low-/high-bandwidth), and I can add a photo to an email easily from my phone, so that kinda takes care of my needs right there.

I'm a professional coder, by the way. I make daily use of much more powerful editors. That's not what I use this for. If you want everything in your programmer's editor, that's totally cool; check out org-mode. Me, I've got Notational Velocity tied to a hotkey.
For tasks I use ToodleDo — via web, via app, via email. Not perfect, but flexible and useful.

not being tied to Simplenote's API lets you use anything you want on the PC side, even Vim/Emacs
Simplenote exports to TXT, CSV, JSON, XML, YAML and Evernote formats. That's pretty loose tying.
Simplenote also has type-as-you-go search across all your notes and smooth access to multiple backups of each note.
It's a question of polish. Simplenote is so simple and reliable that I forget that I'm using it. In other words, it's not pitched at Vim/Emacs users.

Okay, I just imported my Evernote into Simplenote, liking it so far. Thanks for posting, Trurl. It certainly does seem transparant as you mention.
As a songwriter, what I would like most is a simple way to add audio. Right now I keep my text notes in single giant draft posts on a Blogger account, and I record voice memos on my iPhone and e-mail them to myself manually. Then I have a Gmail filter set up to see all those voice memos on one page. It's certainly less than ideal.
Is there a simple way to integrate audio with SimpleNote, preferably from both iPhone and desktop web?

I much prefer Simplenote over Evernote, because for how I use it, I don't WANT more than plain text and simplicity. I walk around work jotting things in Simplenote on my iPad. If the iPad isn't handy I do the same thing with my iPhone, and it's always up to date. When I get back to my Windows 7 machine on my desk at work, I fire up Resophnotes and all my SN stuff is there for me to act on. When I get home at the MacBook, I realize I just came up with what I need to do at work. I open up Notational Velocity, see my notes from that day, and pop in there what I wanted to do the next day at my desk. Lather, Rinse, Repeat.
For Files I use Dropbox and Windows Live Mesh, but for just dashing off a quick note, checking what day next week I'm seeing Othello, or putting in a phone number someone gives me that I need to update in Active Directory next time I'm at my desk, I'm very comfortable with the Simplenote ecosystem.

Yeah, that's great. I love notebooks too and use them for specific things. But I happen to work at a computer and carry a phone already so it's convenient to use them, and in the unfortunate event that I lose a particular device my notes are still saved and available.
On preview: who's wasting time on that? ONE time I copied my notes in. No changes for many months and no desire to change. My cloud-synced notes have been fast, searchable, and reliable. It feels like a gain in productivity to me.

There are people who actually generate or own more than a gig of plain text and need access to it everywhere?
I just keep my texts in a simple if messy folder. That folder is so small that it easily resides on, well, nearly every computer or device I own that can act like a drive. It's also in my gmail account. Multiple gmail accounts, if I recall.
This method has saved my ass a few times. "Oh, wait. I have my resume in RTF and plaintext on my MP3 player. And my phone. And my thumbdrive." Or a list of phone numbers, whatever.
Sure, it takes a bit more work to keep perfectly synced, but not that much work. It's easy to zip up the whole folder and just gmail it to yourself.
And then you're not relying on single apps or points of failure in a chain.

I migrated off of the Palm phone / Palm desktop platform two years ago. One of the three mission critical functions I needed was plain text notes syncing, like Notes in the Palm world.
Evernote and the like were AWFUL for this.
AK Notepad and Catch.com were precisely right for this. In fact, they match the OPP link's description of SimpleNotes nearly exactly.
So, if you're an Android user, try AK Notepad.

I've been doing this with PlainText and Dropbox for a while. It's super-handy for shopping lists, or any scrap you want to keep.
The synching is totally automatic. I love being able to whip out my phone, tap a few quick notes, then be able to sit down at a regular computer & have access to those notes. I think I might actually be saving a little paper, even.

Interesting to compare Simplenote's privacy policy policy with the one on catch.com. Also, Simplenote explicitly say your notes aren't stored encrypted - can't find anything explicit on Catch but this post on their forum suggests the same is true there.
Much as it would be cute to have the notes on my desktop synced to my phone and also available anywhere I log into some web service, I'm really not at all sure about the security side of it. Any service like this is going to be a massively juicy target for bad guys, and while both these sites do say they prioritise security, I'm left pretty uneasy about it.
Not that it's a huge deal if my shopping lists and notes to myself about random stuff are read by Joe Q Hacker, but I don't want to use a notes system where I have to make sure to think hard about the potential sensitivity of any and all stuff I ever jot down in it.

From the service standpoint, nothing. Simplenote is basically just Dropbox for text. The real reason you'd want to go to it is because you like the editor (or related ones like NVAlt, which is even better).

Depends on what you need it for, I think. I'm sort of on the opposite side of the fence, a plain text guy who looks at Evernote and wonders what you need all that for. Plain text is lightweight, fast, platform independent, portable as hell, and as future-proof as a file format gets. You don't have to worry about what happens if your favorite program or service starts sucking in five years.
There are other benefits I alluded to upthread if you add things like MultiMarkdown to your workflow. For instance, I can type up plaintext notes in Markdown, and if I need to turn those notes into a document for my coworkers, I can turn it into a formatted HTML page or PDF for them in minutes.

I actually compared evernote to my email client a while ago, and it's shocking how much UI functionality they share. I get the feeling that tools like simplenote, evernote, email, etc will soon be defined by these small differences.

Click.to has proved a nifty way to create new notes from any program. But I'm hoping there will be a way to add notes via Shareaholic - since it can work with a bookmarklet.
