If you have some kind of hosting, it's your duty to either code your own Google Keep or find some open source project. No reason to depend on Google for this kind of stuff. They'll probably ditch it at some point anyway.

right. and also you dont need this sign up bullshit i really hate nowadays!

Looks a lot like Trello! Trello was recently in news for good reason. Seems now Google's time to catchup with everything!

It's just a simple note taking app. Trello is a project management solution.

I use a Moleskine and an pen. Works everywhere, never crashes, no dependency on a third party.

And you can't share it easily with others (unless you are in the same physical place and are willing to lose your copy, or make a backup by hand)

those are my notes, why would I want to share them?

And you can't capture images (unless you're a great artist - and even then, it'll be very slow)

I work on backend software. There is no UI or web-interface or whatever. I do almost all my work on the cli, so I really don't have much use for that either.

I love it. Your implementation is exactly what I think these apps should be: simple, extreme minimalism of UI, and light weight.

thx mate, that was my intention. keep it simple without sign up

I could never find a way to share notes with anyone. Seems like a required feature to me. Am I missing it?

I can't seem to find it in the web version, but you can share from the android app, to my knowledge.

Google have killed projects bigger than this in the past so they can focus on big problems.

So I ask, what big problem does this solve?

Discussions from last year: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5410267 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5410071 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5395147 I've been a user for a year now, and nothing has changed about the service except minor tweaks.

Last year?! It's been out for how long? :( I really like it so far and have been wanting something like it for quite a while (I've been using plain text files in dropbox). I feel so... behind or something.
