### 1/5 — Nice start but needs improvement

*2010-04-22, version 0*

I really wanted to like this program. The picture embed is great. However it's really limited.  Program tries to operate as if u have an entire desktop where u clip little notes to.  Notes are really small.  Though typing notes is fine the actual note card left behind is really small.  I couldn't resize it.  The drawing program isn't very responsive and very jagged.  The tabs are your notes which get cumbersome when you have a lot of notes.  The tab labels are awkward to label. Your writing side ways to label or flipping the iPad again.  Can't change background so if you wanted to export to photos it will always show cork board.  

Recommendations
Tune the drawing to be more like penultimate. 
Notebooks instead of tabs like penultimate
Web clipping like school notes pro

These features would make product killer.

### 5/5 — Useful!

*2010-04-07, version 0*

A great app for organizing multiple projects in a unique and visual way. iM using it to organize several creative ideas I have. Just remember when writing notes to hit the check mark or the text doesn't save before you quit.
