Google Notebook, What is it?
Every now and then Google has some technology in their labs that silently become very popular. Like google earth, picasa, google maps, etc. The Google Notebook is in my opinion one of those.
Have you ever come across some information on the web that you just wanted to excerpt or quote for research? May you want to track a list for prices or be able to quickly refer to a quick peice of technical/how-to instructions. Plus a million other uses.
You can have several notebooks, and divide each notebook up in to different sections. What makes this so interesting is that the images along with the text you snip appear in your notebook.
The downside? Well, if there is one, is that the information you snip and save from sites is not kept on your computer, but on googles servers. If that doesn't bother you, then come get googlefied!

Great review. Google has such an expansive portfolio of free offerings that it is hard to keep track of all of their nifty gadgets.
