50 best websites springpad.com

Promising the ability to bookmark, categorize and organize just about everything in your life, Springpad really set itself apart in 2010 with the release of its mobile application, which allows users to search, grab and sort on the fly. Write and save notes, synchronize contact lists, create and then check off items on to-do lists, locate stores and restaurants, use global positioning to identify nearby businesses, scan bar codes of products you want to remember or learn more about later — Springpad is one big information dump. Beyond merely storing the info, you can then sort and search via mobile device, laptop or desktop; the program also synchronizes across devices.
