Stikkit, online note taker
This simply designed online note taker is extremely easy to use and pleasant as well. Its clean and easy interface makes it a joy to use. Stikkit isn't as simple as it looks, though. Picture your classic yellow sticky note pads, with a brain of their own. Stikkit actually pays attention to what you type. If it catches you writing a note about an appointment or a task, it will drop it into a calendar, or task list. It even has a little RSS integration, so you can feed your Stikkits into your favorite desktop reader to remind you. Pretty cool. There is only one issue I have with the app: no notifications. I would love to see it shoot me an email when there is a task or calendar item that comes up on its deadline. Or maybe even a text message. In all, Stikkit is a great, simple online application where you can keep your small notes.P.S. This is exactly what Gmail needs.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Inline note-taking in Gmail would be supreme. It would change the way I could work with my email. I mean, is it really that hard to do?

yes, for the love of god, i second that emotion.
i also really really want a del.icio.us for notes. just like the del.icio.us interface, but for taggable notes instead of links. i think i would kill for that. (yes i know about simpy and no, it doesn't work for me)

I checked out the Stikkit site and was so impressed by the described product functions that my finger was poised to download. Then I looked through the "rights and obligations". These caused me enough concern to not go further. I would recommend that anyone should read these carefully they seem to give Stikkit a lot of leverage on one's private data. My question to anyone who reads this and may know - Are these "rights and obligations" now commonplace or am I right to be cautious?
