A Notebook, by Google

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

So for a while I was looking into making like a online todo list for myself, just for quick notes and stuff. Really it was because I would think about things that I would want to post or look into more while I was at work and then by the time I got home I would forget. My first thoughts were to get a wiki going, but that seemed to much to meet my simple needs. I wanted to program it myself, but I never got around to it and there are more important things I need to program. This is where Google Notebook would fill the gap.

Originally when I first heard about Google Notebook, I thought there was no real purpose for it, but now I see it’s benefits. “With Google Notebook, you can browse, clip, and organize information from across the web in a single online location that’s accessible from any computer.” [1] It does exactly that too. I can access it from work and home or any place that there is access to the internet. It also has nice features like a Firefox Addon and a mobile version I can access from my phone. It allows for multiple categories under one notebook to keep things organized. So really overall it’s much better then sticky notes.
