Google Notebook Soon from Google Labs

May 11th, 2006 | Filed under Google, Tips, Tools.

A Google press release announced new technologies to enhance and improve the Google search experience with three new products – Google Co-op, Google Desktop 4, and the Google Notebook

Google Notebook is a simple way for users to save and organize their thoughts when conducting research online. This personal browser tool permits users to clip text, images, and links from the pages they’re browsing, save them to an online “notebook” that is accessible from any computer, and share them with others.

Google Notebook is an interactive scratch pad for every website a user visits, offering a single online location to collect web findings without having to leave the browser window. For example, if a user were planning a vacation, she could clip the most relevant materials on the pages she visits and add personal notes to help organize all of her research.

Users can make their Google Notebook public and share the notes they’ve taken with others. As a result, the time and effort put into their research can be harnessed by the online community as a whole.

Google Labs is creating innovative products all the time and it would be interesting to see the launch of Google Notebook next week at http://www.google.com/notebook . I wonder if it would be a new version of Writely - a free web word processor which lets you share and collaborate your work online which was recently acquired by Google.
