Notebook options: Yahoo Search Pad; Snapbits; and, notebook G

I’ve covered notebooks such as Evernote in some depth but there are a range of other tools available that help you organise clips, bookmarks, notes, documents and screenshots in ‘notebooks’.

Here are three others:

notebook G
“notebook G is an online personal information organizer you can use to keep track of the various notes for home, school and work. Use notebook G as a replacement for a paper-based spiral notebook, or as a supplement to paper-based organizers.
Since notebook G is web-based, your data follows you wherever you go. And your data is protected from viruses and spyware, as well as backed up to a world-class data protection firm.”

SnapBits
“SnapBits is a free service that may be used to securely store, search, sort and easily retrieve “Bits” of information. These “Bits” may be anything you wish to remember or keep a note of. You may store as many as you like and unlike conventional paper notes, you will never lose or fail to find your information.”

Yahoo’s Search Pad
Yahoo’s notebook application is due to be released soon. Here’s a preview:

Memory search tool – Infoaxe

I’ve been aware of Infoaxe for some time but only recently discovered that its functionality allows you to do far more than search your private web history online. Here’s what it can do:

• Once you’ve downloaded the Infoaxe toolbar it gives you quick access to the sites you visit most.
• It lets you decide which pages you visit are stored in your history.
• You can tag the pages you visit to organise your history.
• Once you’re up and running when you search Google or Yahoo you get search results from your history alongside the standard search engine results.
• The ‘pivot’ tool enables you to bundle pages together from your history that you browsed at around the same time.
• You can search your history using any computer.

Given the search functionality, Infoaxe effectively works to automatically bookmark all the pages you visit.
