As a result of the ever increasing diffusion and utilisation of the Internet, the information and services available online grow every day. This implies problems that become ever more important and hard to solve, such as:
- where do I save the useful information I have found?
- how do I organize and search the useful information I have saved before?
- how can I share the useful information I have saved?
- how can I find and communicate with other people with the same interests as me?
- how can I quickly create web pages accessible by anybody without engaging a web programmer or requesting permission from the relevant web site authority?
Let's see how OnlineNotes addresses each of the above questions.
Where do I save the useful information I have found?
Consider the following facts:
- we may use several computers (hand-held, laptop, desktop, local server)
- some times we don't have our computer with us but can use someone else's computer (e.g. in a hotel or an Internet café)
- the computer we are using may break, get lost or stolen
- we may forget to back up data in our computer or simply not do it because it is time consuming and complicated.
- maintaining a private dedicated server is expensive, time consuming and requires specific skills
For all the above reasons, a web server managed by an Internet Service Provider is generally the best place where to save valuable information. You can install OnlineNotes in any shared or dedicated Linux-based server managed by an ISP (including daily back up of data) for a very low price. And in order to use OnlineNotes you only need a web browser. No need to install anything in your computer.
How do I organize and search the useful information I have saved before?
When you have a lot of information, you have to organize it properly, otherwise you will not be able to find it quickly when you need it. Having too much unorganized information is like having no information at all. With OnlineNotes you can organize your valuable information using the powerful functions of a datase. You can create records associated with particular sections and categories and find them using various filtering and sorting criteria, including full text search.
How can I share the useful information I have saved?
OnlineNotes lets you specify for each record, who can access it: only you, only a particular group of users or everybody. So you can share your records with other people and see other people's shared records.
How can I find and communicate with other people with the same interests as me?
Social networks are more and more popular because they allow people to meet persons with similar interests and establish meaningful relationships. OnlineNotes allows you to see the records published by anonymous or identifiable users and get in contact with these via the site's internal mail.
How can I quickly create web pages accessible by anybody without engaging a web programmer or requesting permission from the relevant web site authority?
OnlineNotes lets you create web content that can be accessed by anybody through an Internet web address. This address can be indexed by search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing etc. Every registered user can immediately insert records with simple or rich text (HTML) possibly embedding images, video and sound, and every user (registered or unregistered) can query the database. Every search query corresponds to a particular web address that can be used by anybody to obtain the same results.
