Google Notebook

leave a comment »

So with this recent discovery and hype about Chrome, I decided to check out the other Google applications.  And thats when I discovered Notebook.  What a nifty little idea!  Keep your notes online and they travel with you where every you go.  So this post is to let people like me who don’t know anythign about Google’s nifty little Notebook and what you can do with it.

How to use it? Well just sign into Google’s notebook at www.google.com/notebook and start using it.

There are a couple of ways you can take full advantage of it though.  The most nifty way is to download the Firefox browser extension and have the notebook travel to whereever you surf.  Here is a screen shot of how you can simply drag and drop contents into the notebook:

Just drag&drop or type in your notebook

Or you use some other browser, such as Chrome (suprisingly Notebook does not add-on for Chrome yet), just add the Notebook Bookmarklet to your bookmarks.

[Update]
I created this post a while ago, but never posted it.  Anyway, am posting it as is – with a small update!  I also recently started using Google Tasks.  It’s an add-in to Gmail web client.  The nifty thing about this one is you can take any email and quickly create a task related to it.  Lovely.  Now only if Gmail IMAP would support this.  Then my tasks will travel everywhere with me.
