Google Notebook
Google have released the “Google Notebook” which looks promising, however I cant help but feel that notes not accociated with a specific URL or domain will soon get muddled. Personally I think it would be great if they assigned a domain (e.g. labs.google.com or www.google.com) to each note you make and they only appear when you are at that page - for me its MUCH more useful. Im sure being able to search through the whole lot will be a good idea but my proposed addition makes sense to me.
IN addition, the ability to have the notebook as a sidebar would also be beneficial, I appreciate the small icon and such but a permenant sidebar which doesnt interfere or overlay on the browser would be better.
In all it’s good but I wont be using it until some changes are made.
Edit: Also, WHY do Google consistantly develop applications for Microsoft Internet Explorer first? The reality is that the majority of those who WANT to test these apps first and spread the word are usually devout Firefox users or any other browser than IE.
