A handy way to keep notes while you browse the web
Chrome Note Extension
I wanted something to keep notes while on the web and I wanted to take a stab at building a Chrome app. It is extremely basic and that was my intention.
There are some improvements I'd like to make and will be doing so over time.
I'll be putting this on GitHub soon too so you can fork/laugh at it :)
