Kindle Touch Note Taking?

Sinanju · 01-25-2012, 08:03 AM

Bought a Kindle Touch and love it. I don't think it has been more than 20 feet from me since I bought it, and that is usually while it is charging. My question is is there a note taking application that is compatible with the Touch and what success/problems has anyone had with using the program. Thanks in advance..

Sinanju,

I did a quick search for you. You could check these out:

Notepad for Kindle

Note to Self

KindlePad

I haven't tried any of them so wouldn't know if they are any good. Judging from the reviews though... probably not.

You can always go 'low tech' on this and just create a document with (for example) a list of dates, give it a meaningful name, and send it to your Kindle via the Personal Document service. then you can open that and add a note to the relevant date. With PD synching, you can do this on any Kindle or Kindle app that supports PD, it's all backed up, etc. Or you can use note 'categories' instead of dates, etc. Plus it is possible to export via 'my clippings.txt'.

Given the advantages, not sure why you'd want to use an app, assuming there is one for Kindle Touch.

tomsem, that's a wonderful idea. I think I want to adopt that. Thanks!

I usually use the export "my clippings" function, and also often convert my clippings to word or pdf (using http://clippingsconverter.com) for easier organization of my notes.

Hey everyone, how did the note taking programs work? I've just purchased my Kindle not so long ago and I'm a bit unfamiliar with the programs. Look for some advice!
