This blog is born out of frustration. There's no one perfect solution for taking notes on the Web. But there's no shortage of imperfect, not-quite-there applications and ideas. This is my quest for the best way to keep our heads in the clouds.

I now use Tumblr (RIP Google Notebook) to organize my notes and ideas for this blog. You'll find that my Notemarks Tumblelog is updated far more frequently, so I urge you to check it out.
