Google Notebook to become stagnant

Soon, Google Notebook will no longer be improved…
You can export notebooks to Google Docs, which I recommend you do…now (just to be safe).

If you can afford it, take a look at Microsoft OneNote.
I’ve been using Evernote ever since it was in beta, and am prepared to recommend it. After it is installed on a computer, a portable version can be installed to a USB drive. It syncs to a web interface, and can also be accessed via mobile devices. [New update, January 23:] Evernote has developed a Google Notebook import tool…

Zoho Notebook is attempting to allow Google Notebooks to be imported…

To export your Google Notebook as Atom via Google Notebook’s interface:
Step 1: Click Manage notebooks on the left hand side.
Step 2: Click export on which notebook you want to export.
Step 3: Click Atom…you will be prompted to save a file. Save that file to your disk.

To import/upload your notebooks from Google Notebook into Zoho Notebook:
Step 4: click Browse or Choose file button provided to select the saved file.
Step 5: Click Import.

new 2 TB memory card format

There are various formats for memory cards. SD memory cards can have capacities up to 2 GB. I use them in my computers, portable digital assistants, cameras, and telephones.

I knew the day would come when I would need to seriously consider “the next format”…that day always comes. I have a tablet PC that would not read 1 GB SD cards…until I updated the BIOS. When necessary, I had been using USB card readers to access memory cards (that my computers would not).

At ShowStoppers (at CES), Kingston gave to me an 8 GB SDHC card. I have found that my readers don’t work with SDHC cards. Time to go shopping…

The SD High-Capacity (SDHC) cards go up to 32GB, and:
“SDHC-enabled products accommodate SDHC memory cards and are backward compatible with SD memory cards. Data on SDHC cards is protected even if inserted in an incompatible device. SDHC cards also work in standard SD slots with a firmware upgrade.”

Beyond SDHC, SDXC (eXtended Capacity) memory cards are coming: up to 2 terabytes (TB) of storage per card…that could be 100 HD movies per card.

I was thinking about allowing myself to “fall in love” with blu-ray. But now…
