I've just discovered the research notebook app/digital commonplace book Orson, which looks very interesting.
What particularly caught my attention is how its structure maps precisely onto the pattern @gordon has identified as "capture, organise, synthesise"
Orson has cards to capture information, contexts (e.g. maps, timelines, etc) to organise, and pages to write narratives, embedding cards or contexts as necessary.
