Annotate the web.

The current process is all too familar. While reading articles or watching videos online, you come across useful information that you would like to jot down to store your thoughts.

Pause a video, leave an article, switch tabs, then jot down useful pieces of information. Then go back to the video or article, and find where you left off. This wastes minutes of time everyday.

We were frustrated with the disconnect between traditional note-taking, and the fluid nature of the web, so we came up with the solution.

Sidenotes is the fastest way to write notes in your browser. No more switching tabs, pausing videos, or running multiple apps to jot down your thoughts.

Sidenotes is always there when you need it. With the single click of a button, or a single keystroke, you are writing.

We eliminate any unnecessary steps, leaving you with the simplest process for taking notes & annotating the web.

Sidenotes is packaged into a simple Chrome Extension, meaning your notes are never far away.

We leverage the power of the Dropbox Datastore API and Google Chrome Local Storage to sync your notes immediately, both online and offline.

Your notes are linked with the URL where you took the note and will appear upon your next visit.

If you need to pull up a past note or url you may visit our search page, which will allow you to redirect back to the URL and have your note ready to edit.

Sidenotes is built entirely in HTML5, CSS3 & JavaScript.

The four of us are currently attending DevBootcamp in NYC. Sidenotes was built in less than a week for our final project. We hope you enjoy it's simplicity & find it useful. Have fun annotating the web!
