Google notebook lets you save any content that you can download + highlight (e.g. it doesn’t save streaming video). Plus it lets you make your own notes. Then you can organize it using headings and use multiple notebooks. Then you can share it on-line. Then you can go into IE and have all your content there via the IE plug-in. Then you can share it with other people by making the notebook public. If it sounds like I’m impressed it’s because I am.
It’s not perfect though, there are a couple problems:
-
The window is not expandable and is kind of small. It’s nice that it doesn’t take up the screen unless you expand it but on other hand it would nice if I could make it bigger without taking up the entire screen.
-
It all hinges on the right click menu and not on Drag and Drop. DnD would be much easier to use but much harder to get working on IE and FF.
- Search and sharing don’t seem to work yet.
- Everything is stored on the Google servers. Ignoring privacy concerns, It’s kind of sad that if a phoneline/cabeline/network goes all your “notes” go too.
