October 7, 200619 yr Google Notebookhttp://www.google.com/notebookI've been using this free Google Labs service for several months now to gather information on various topics. Here's the basic move: in your web browser, select some text (or a graphic) and right-click on it. Select "Note this" and the item goes in your current notebook (you can have as many as you want). One nice feature of this: Google Notebook saves the web address where you got the item from, so you can go back and check it later. Another feature: because the notebooks are stored on Google's servers, you can access them from any computer. (Don't do this if you're notebooking stuff that could get you in trouble. Also, don't DO stuff that could get you in trouble.)This week I've been using Google Notebook to gather snippets of info about FSX: what's working, fixes that people have found, settings, the sort of thing you read and think, "I should remember that for later." (For items on the AVSIM forum, I could use AVSIM bookmarks. However, those can't be organized and with Google Notebook, I can collect information from a range of websites in one place.)
October 7, 200619 yr Outstanding. I love tools like this one. I'm a big user of MS OneNote, but this thing is fairly robust and, most importantly, accessible from anywhere.Thanks!
