Create and manage quick notes.

Notebooks, notes, notes... We are so used to using all the methods that, sometimes, we lack these tools in virtual reality. But there is a wonderful extension that will make you feel at ease and never forget that important thing that you would like to see again on any web page. Want to know how to add a note on any website?

Note Anywhere extension for Google Chrome

Download for Google Chrome, This whole service on creating stickers on web pages, and I'll tell you how you can use it. After installing the extension, a yellow extension icon will appear in the browser. Click on it to activate the extension while on any site. At this moment, a yellow sticker will appear on the page, the color of which you can change in the settings. In addition to color, you can change appearance stickers, lettering size and font.

Clicking on "Notes Summary"— a sticker appears containing all the links to the pages where you left notes. My notes are only on this site, so the sticker shows 3 links to my site. When you click on "Settings"— a panel for setting the font, color and text size appears. When you change settings, a small sticker appears that will record all the changes you make. Once you change the background color, the sticker will also change its color.

Now you can move the sticker to any place on the page that you consider important to you. You probably know that webmasters very often have to edit articles, but this cannot always be done right away. But you want to save an idea or task so as not to forget. Of course, to organize work you can always use a lot useful tools, the same Google Docs...But, you must agree that it is much more convenient to leave a note directly on desired page and look at a convenient time - the sticker will tell you exactly what needs to be done.

How do I do it?!

For example, I saw information in one video that was not reflected in the article about I immediately thought that it would be nice to add the missing information to the article that I wrote earlier. How to make sure that the reminder is always in front of your eyes? I decided to make two stickers: one directly in the article itself, and the second one to leave on the blog page so that I know which article needs an addition. This is what it looks like:

Note in the article

Note on home page blog

Now, looking at the site (for some it may be the main page of the site, in my case all the articles are on the blog), the annoying yellow A sticker will remind me every day of what needs to be done. Imagine how many important things we miss just because we forget what needs to be done and where? And if you schedule time on a sticky note, the note will turn into a planner of our to-dos. Great?!

Important! If you leave a note on a page and then close the browser, then opening the same page again at any time, the sticker will be in the place where you left it. Check it out for yourself.

And there are also useful articles, but they are long... And even if you bookmarked the source, after some time it is very difficult to remember and find the right fragment. Note Anywhere will help in this case too: leave the sticker in in the right place articles, and be sure that important part you will find the text without much difficulty.

The icon in the browser will tell you how many notes are on this page, and the date and time will tell you when the note was made.

Number of notes per page

Ideas for using stickers

There are so many ideas you can come up with to use. this extension!!! Write your ideas in the comments, friends!

• On the main page of the site you can leave notes with the topic or title of a future article.
• Have any of you forgotten to withdraw money from an affiliate program? The sticker will remind you!
• On social networks (if you work as an admin or lead your own group), you can decorate the entire public page with stickers: as a rule, there are a great many things that need to be done.

Pros and cons of the Note Anywhere extension

1. The only negative that immediately catches your eye is the sticker’s inability to display link text. Therefore, you will have to look for the link either in two stages, as I wrote above, or look into the extension parameters and find the required link there.
2. But the most useful property yellow sticker - constantly remind you of yourself. On the one hand, it’s a little annoying, but on the other hand, it prompts you in time. We are looking for a golden mean))

Leave your notes on social networks, on your websites, on the Internet, so as not to forget or lose something important and interesting, and in right moment remember what we were looking for on this site. And then, all our started or unstarted affairs will still be

When I was little, I wrote terrible notes: they were notebooks with dirty text and poor structure. Almost useless.

Then, when I discovered MOOC video courses, I continued to use the same antipatterns as in my school days, but not so ugly: with the help of VimWiki and later with Jupyter.

The records were still poorly structured. Look at this: I even have motivation It’s not enough to just open it and look at what’s inside:

The main idea is to project our memory in records(not the lecturer's memory) using program design principles.

Prerequisites

Make it readable

We, the developers software, we take code quality very seriously. We don't like smelly code.

We communicate using code and investing extra time and energy in writing elegant code so that other developers can read it efficiently. Including ourselves: in the future we literally become different people.

I found the same approach convenient for personal notes: you can optimize search and reading of notes, using a little more effort to writing.

Rough draft

Write down the title and sources (books, articles, scientific works, video recordings, whatever you use) into a specific block of information. Start analyzing the first source. While you're analyzing, add some key details.

Refactoring

Now highlight keywords, break up long sentences, use more complex hierarchy bulleted lists, add subheadings. Use Occam's Razor: reduce the entry several times without losing the original meaning.

Continue to explore other sources and update relevant entries, add new information and update the old one.

When a recording becomes large, divide it into files or even structure it using folders.

How to choose a structure? Choose one that will to you convenient: imagine that you are looking for something in your notes. How exactly will you search? What is the shortest path to the record?

Add tips for your future

Tired of studying and want to start doing something? It's good to be pragmatic. Add assumptions you might want to explore in the future using a TODO comment.

Found a cool resource on a topic you've already put aside? Find the relevant entry, add the source and continue doing what you were doing.

And then you need to return to your creative state of consciousness and continue working. Just imagine how much energy this takes from you.
