This collection of questions suggests that you look at orgmode
http://orgmode.org/ which is really suited to exactly this kind of activity.
After youve looked around and played with it for a day or two, ask this on the
org mailing list -- preferably in more specific form. Org-mode is probably the
single biggest killer-app in emacs-land today; its certainly making more
converts of people who would otherwise run miles from anything emacs-ish and
has even spawned a vi clone -- vimorganizer

Lookup mobileorg
And see http://swaroopch.com/2013/01/16/orgmode/
