Since it also automatically creates entries to my delcious account as well, I therefore get 2 reminders in a short amount of time.

All the little “brain droppings” of my life find their way into my “little black book.” The advantage there is that with a pencil, I can continue working even when the DSL is out, the laptop battery is dead, and the power is out for the whole block.

Just create a dummy blog where you post notes on whatever you happen to be reading at the time with the post title as the title of the book. Edit the post as you go. Works quite well and is formatted nicely for re-reading.

It’s very nice. Including the searching.

This is Steve Rubel’s idea: using Gmail as his personal nerve center. He said in his first post on the “PNC” that Google Notebook didn’t support the same mobile access and search capabilities that Gmail has, and that’s why he uses it.

I haven’t evaluated this myself, but I’m doing research for a feature on clippings and bookmark capabilities, so maybe I’ll have a chance to do so in the near future.

I’m a Gmail devotee, but why not use something like Google Notebook instead?
