"We often think of note-taking applications as memory aids, but brain science teaches us that the best way to remember is to create links to something concrete and to share with friends," said Steve Brown, 3banana Co-Founder and CEO. "3banana Notes is the first smart phone note-taking app that works the way your brain works -- capturing and organizing information with less effort, making it easy to share and discuss notes with friends, and enabling you to link those online conversations to physical objects. Whether it is a bottle of wine, a book, or a box of stuff in your garage, now you can hold up your smart phone to a QR code on that object and immediately scan in your shared notes related to that object."
3banana Notes for Android stays synchronized wirelessly with the 3banana online service at http://3banana.com. Using 3banana online or on the go, users can view and edit their private notes, share and discuss notes with friends, and generate and scan QR codes (quick response barcodes) associated with online and mobile notes. In addition to photos and notes captured on smart phones, online users also can keep track of web pages, presentations, and videos. All notes are organized and labeled inline -- without the need for extra data entry fields or repetitive typing. Notes can be shared by emailing permalinks to shared notes or by posting shared notes to popular social networks like Facebook and Twitter.
3banana Notes is currently available as a free download in the Google Android App Market. QR Codes are two dimensional barcodes designed for high speed scanning and decoding. QR Codes were created by Denso-Wave in Japan in 1994, and had have gained popularity recently when Google started to promote the standard.
