Example of using PeepNote

I don’t know about you, but I have a terrible memory. So I have to carefully bookmark web sites so I can find them again, use an application to help me remember my passwords, and use a to do manager to help me remember what needs to get done.

When it comes to the people I meet online, like on Twitter, I also have things I want to remember about them as I get to know them by reading their tweets and when chatting with them online.

This is where PeepNote comes in. With a simple login process that takes less than a minute, you can get started importing those you follow on Twitter and gain the ability to tag them and take notes on them.

Now at first you might wonder how that could be helpful, so I put together an example. Jason Fried, of 37 Signals, is someone I hope to meet someday. I agree with what he says on web site design and running a business and have learned a lot from him. I put together some notes on my PeepNote page on him to help jog my memory about some of the things he has said and some of the facts about him.

Should I ever go to a conference where he is going to be I can review the notes, or, if I want to send him a message on Twitter, or a birthday card, I might even be able to reference something I took notes on.

You may want to keep notes on someone you plan to make a sales call on, or take notes on someone special you met and you want to send them a gift on their birthday.

The examples are endless really. When we want to make a good impression on someone to show them we care or respect them, remembering something they said or did in the past, or one of their preferences, or something you have in common, goes a long way.

If you have other ways in which you plan to use PeepNote, why not let us know?
