Springpad – simple notebook or more?

Thanks to Svartling, I came across interesting and feature-rich web application today – Springpad.
Actually it’s much more than notebook and it’s very easy to use. It’s refreshing to find so user-friendly application with plenty possibilities (only your imagination sets the limits – see below: in comments of Svartling FF entry)

On aside note – Springpad is in beta and, as Svartling writes, one can have small problems at the beginning during registration process (my husband encountered this, too…). I had to repeat registration twice but at the end it worked – I’ve got confirmation e-mail. The application has the calendar, to-do lists, reminders and integration with fi. Google Calendar – well, I just started to play with it…

I suppose that next I will try the mobile interface of Springpad and possibility of publishing (I mean blogging, of course) notes. Perhaps one could also integrate it with FriendFeed…? Well, it’s just a vague idea.

Some excerpts from FriendFeed on Springpad:

And two videos you can watch to get you started on Springpad

I hope you will enjoy this little web application as much as I do – especially, if you were searching for Google Notebook substitute – it seems to be a decent replacement option…
