Doesn’t work that well. Name must be unique (huh?). When I closed the tags help box the app thought I was closing my browser window. Other small, but annoying bugs.

Tom: I also have a browser windows open 24/7, but i use Gmail, which can automatically add tags based on content, title or sender.

An interesting point. However I find that given a bit or perseverance to begin with it ends up being quicker to use different web applications than to run local applications to do the same tasks. I have a web browser open all the time and history and bookmarks allow me to bring up the applications in a fraction of a second.

I see what you mean about just sending yourself an email but having a dedicated application allows for a better organisational structure than an inbox full of different notes and tasks.

I really like some of the ideas some of these guys have, but WHY would an end user go to website X to create a ‘notepad document’, website Y to create his backpack todo list, and website Z to do something else?

It’s just too scattered nowadays, and people get all excited over some really trivial simple stuff.

If i want to send myself a reminder or i need ‘a notepad’ i send myself an e-mail. That’s how people have done it for ages, and that’s the most efficient way to my knowledge…
