Hi Norman,

There are open source ELN and LIMS such as OpenSourceELN 
(www.opensourceeln.org) and HalX (Prilusky et al. 2005, 
halx.genomics.eu.org), but I personally prefer to use text files, 
directories, vim and a few shell scripts to keep track of my day-to-day work. 
I never felt the need for anything more complex. ;)

Cheers,
