I'm loving Google Notebook right now. After many attempts at finding an information saving / web clipping tool - including OneNote, Enfish, Onfolio, and a number of others that I can't even remember, finally there's something very lightweight and reasonably functional.
I've also installed Google Browser Sync - a Firefox extension that syncs up cookies, bookmarks, history, open pages between various instances of Firefox that you might have - ie work and home, or desktop and laptop. Pretty nice to fire up Firefox at home and continue where you left off, and no longer does reinstalling Firefox mean another session of getting my bookmarks and various web site authentications setup. Firefox does seem slower though - so not completely sold on it.
Not liking Google Calendar much. It's not bad, but the lack of automatic sync is a fatal flaw for me, when compared to Airset, which syncs up from Outlook at work to the website to Outlook at home and vice versa. Sounds complicated but isn't - all it means is that I have an up to date calendar and contact list at home and work, and online when I need it (as well as on my Blackberry and mobile phone). Redundancy of access is a pretty powerful thing, and has saved me plenty many times.
