Synchronize your notes with sync notes
Why is it that every time someone comes up with a good idea, everyone else takes the same idea, claims they have made it better and then puts out the exact same thing that everyone else has? That is exactly the question I had to ask myself about Sync notes. Sync notes is yet another offering to the desktop note taking market that bills itself as “Your notes, anywhere, anyhow” and really fails to provide any real reason to use them. However other than the fact that there is really nothing unique or new about syncnotes, it does do its job well.
I have covered many similar applications such as remember the milk and Mojonote, who all promise to make my life simpler by allowing me a one stop source for all my note taking/task mangement needs. What I am starting to find out slowly though is that for the most part one is as good as another. They all allow you to post your notes online, and by cell phone (provided of course it has some form of internet connection). However one interesting feature of Syncnote is that it has a downloadable desktop application (much like microsoft offices one note). This may actually be its one feature that makes it worth getting over all the other note taking applications out there.
Lets say you are writing on your desktop, a friend calls and tells you they have moved to a new address, simply open up the syncnote icon, type in your note, press the synchronize note button and it will appear online. Now admitted it would be just as easy to simply open your browser go to a bookmarked syncnote page and enter it there, but the honest truth is that there are times where internet is actually not available (which also kind of makes the synchronizing button a bit of a waste).
Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate syncnotes, I actually think that it is a good application, I just wish it were a little more inovative and offered something to make it stand out in the crowd. So in the end if you are looking for a solid note taking application, give syncnotes a try here.
