Plus, say I'm at school and I type in the assigned homework, I can go home later and find that note in my email since it sends a copy there. Plus Im always trying to remember the names of movies and songs I like as well! lol I really like the Jot It app. It makes it very quick and easy to type in a quick note whenever I need it.

I almost never open the app just to see where everybody is, so this is a nice way to keep track of my friends.

I think what Jot It does is especially interesting because it effectively makes the dashboard very similar to Windows 7's jump lists. I could see that paradigm becoming more prevalent as developers recognize the potential it has. Very nifty examples indeed!
