NewNote Extension

NewNote is a Chrome extension for all users who want to make notes at any given time without having to leave the tab that they are on. It's perfect for meetings, lists or even reminders.

To make the content a little easier to navigate, you can format your notes, just like with any text editor—use the buttons provided or just use the general keyboard shortcuts.

It stores the content to your local browser, so you're the only one who will ever see it, unless, of course, you use the export function. That will export the content to a .txt file that you can send to anyone you like.

It's new, it's light and new features will come with every update. Enjoy!
