- livefire, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9I like to GTD... in my pants.
- baldr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4One often overlook feature of notebook is the mapping feature (even overlooked by lifehacker). By putting an address within a note, notebook will notice and be able to show you it on a map (by going to Tools-> view on map). All of the addresses in the notebook are compiled and marked on this google map page (great for planning a road trip).
- CircleFusion, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Interesting. Someone was just telling me about google notebook yesterday. I usually use box.net to save notes between work and home, and I forgot to upload something from my work computer that I needed.
From the google blog

"That's why we built Google Notebook--to give you an online "notebook" where you can organize all your research, add personal notes to it, and share it with others. Google Notebook surfs along quietly with you as you browse, letting you clip and annotate whatever text, images, and links that help answer your question, all without ever leaving the webpage you're on."
And the Google notebook page itself.

You can access notebook data using their API

You are not the standard. - sehzades, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I used to use clippings but this is better. I can export it to google docs and stuff...
- Malarie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I use Mind Manager from mindjet and Ilike it a lot. MM combined with gyronix is actually much better than notebook imo.
When you have gyroQ installed with MM all u have to do is type CTRL+Q and there is a little pop up that comes out. You type your idea/action and once a day you press Send Q to send everything on your mind manager map automatically - DyDx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's a pretty nice tool that they don't really advertise at all (as far as i am aware). I only found about it because my friend suggested we use it for a proposal we were doing for a class which required a lot of researching science and engineering articles... it worked great!
- FlyboyP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Google Notebook is great. I've been using it increasingly as a to-do list and idea repository, because the pop-up link is conveniently there on my Firefox status bar, and it's in the right-click menu. It became a natural place to put these miscellaneous notes. I'm not a GTDian but I do like being organized and capturing thoughts at the moment I have them.
The major shortcoming I see is that it's not really designed as a to-do list... no way to email notes into it, or set up reminders, or integrate it into GCalendar. If Google realized this and implemented to-do list functionality, Google would own my cerebral cortex. - dannielo, on 05/06/2008, -0/+1For implementing GTD you might try out this new web-based application:
Gtdagenda.com
You can use it to manage your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use
checklists, schedules and a calendar.
A mobile version is available too.
As with the last update, now Gtdagenda has due date for tasks (you'll see in the calendar on the right if you have tasks due today), task notes, and Email & Print support.
Hope you like it. - lyberty, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Uh.... what?
- CircleFusion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0But...but.....
this one is made by Google.
THE Google
;-) - blightybabe, on 04/06/2008, -0/+0I have a free account at 37signal.com's Basecamp and it does me pretty good, but I am going to be implementing this now as I have really gotten in to Google Notebook of late.

Notebook is awesome, however, if you do not want it, go to tools addons and disable/unistall it. Should be very easy. BTW who keeps 200 days worth of history, I clear mine almost daily. - saltmiser, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0anybody know the ratio of major google programs to all google programs? at least they're staying in the game. I wonder if there's anybody who exclusivly uses google to do everything, since by now you probably can...
- frazier428, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1this seems great and all, but I just had a bad experience with Google Notebook:
I installed it yesterday after noticing it in the programs section assuming it would be useful. I checked out its features, and played with it a bit, and then all the jazz about HD-DVD started happening, so I quit messing with Notebook and watched the insanity unfold. This morning after restarting my computer for the first time since installing Notebook, I boot up FireFox and something odd happens. The page I'm looking at is about Google Notebook, even though I had restarted FireFox previously, and played with it last night, and my homepage has changed from google.com to the default FireFox homepage, the FireFox version of the Google homepage. Immediately go to Digg, and I notice to my dismay that all the fonts and letter sizes have changed. It seems Google Notebook reset all my settings. I lost over 200 days worth in history data, and had to spend over 20 minutes re-tweaking all my settings. Of course, I was pissed. So I headed over to Google to report that bug, but I couldn't find anything that would allow me to e-mail Google in any of the contact pages, and to top things off I can't remove Google Notebook from my services, so I suppose it will remain there laughing at me for eternity unless I wipe my account clean or start another one. - cirelo, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Word is born
- hunglowang, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2***** google? What do you use to search then? EXCITE? or BONZIBUDDY SEARCH?
