Study Stickies: Social note taking from books, papers, videos, etc.

Hi,

Study Stickies allows you to better understand and remember
books
(both printed and online), videos, podcasts, online
documents, etc.

http://studystickies.com


In particular, you can use the service to add notes to your
textbooks
without using (real) stickies or marking them up in any way.
This
allows you to more easily browse and search through your
notes in one
place while keeping your books in good condition.

You can, if you like, share your notes with others. Sharing
of notes
allows users of the service to learn from each other. For
example, if
you get stuck on some topic in your textbook, you can see if
anyone
has made any insightful notes about it.

I was wondering if anyone here has tried this out yet.

I would like to launch it soon so any feedback would be
appreciated,
particularly concerning day to day usage issues.

If something about the service is unclear, please let me
know.

I can tell you after a quick scan of the website, it's not
too obvious
what it is all about.

It's a note taking service.

Why take notes at all?  Several reasons:

* when you forget something, you can more easily look it up
from your
notes than from the original source (particularly for
printed books)

* no need to mark up your books

* rewriting concepts in your own words helps you understand
them better

* other people can benefit from your notes and you can
benefit from
their notes; for example, if you get stuck on page x of book
y, then
see what others thought of that page

* many people linking to your notes would give you
confidence in the
correctness of your notes

* it's particularly useful for people with poor memories who
need to
look up things a lot

I've created a new flash demo that should help:

Mate - forcing it on people is NOT a help. You should always
link to
things like flash rather than ram it down their throats.

All the best,

I was trying to address feedback like this:

http://
news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=26150

It seems most visitors have no idea what this is about,
although it's
a pretty simple concept that should be easy to understand
from this
flash demo.
