Evernote

I have started using this service and really like it.  "Use Evernote to save your ideas, things you see, and things you like. Then find them all on any computer or device you use. For free."  I've upgraded to the premium version, but I don't really think that is necessary.  The thing that I really like about this in the ability to access my "memory" from a WIDE variety of devices.  I haven't gotten it to work well on my Blackberry yet, but I'm OK with that.  You have to be out of touch SOMETIMES you know. :)


I also LOVE the logo (hope I don't get in trouble for showing it to you.

More from Eyjafjallajokull - The Big Picture - Boston.com

While this has nothing to do with Second Life, I found these pictures fascinating. Brought to you from the volcano with the unpronounceable name (at least to Westerners).
