Very cool! Nice work @amol and team. It seems like the medium e.g. smartphone, browser, etc. matters some times more than the features themselves. For example, I'd argue Evernote didn't have that much on other note-takers but it nailed mobile when mobile became a thing. I wonder if the browser could be such a powerful medium place for notes since it's the one app we all always have open all day at work that could make this product, or others also leveraging the browser, potent. Unfortunately a challenge with all browser-based things has long-been distribution - would love to know if you all have figured this out? For example, I love and use Momentum, but outside of word of mouth, I've done little to share and distribute it virally, esp. compared to other apps I even love less but contribute more to their k factor!

@jasonyogeshshah Yes the single-player stuff in any platform I think can't get THAT big. It's like wargaming the appstores with funny flashlight ideas.

@amol I like flashlights.

This is very similar to how I use blankslate.io (small project I made that was hunted earlier). I've my Chrome up so that my new tabs are blankslate by default, never miss a thought. This appears to do it out of the box (awesome) and has some GREAT features I'm into it! Gonna try it out.

Cool product. You might think about making your logo something like Knōtable. I kept saying knot-able in my head (like to tie a knot). Just a thought.

Been using this a while and I'm a big fan of it's seamless utility. Saves time, adds control.

awesome! I've been trying so many different strategies for note taking that I'm excited to try this. Now taking a note is as simple as "⌘ + T".

@amol this looks really nice - can you tell us what the permissions are required for? The "read and change all data on websites you visit" bit is a bit scary.
