I thought this would be a great tool for use in college as we visit hundreds of web sites each class.When researching clients, businesses, information at work - make a quick note so you can remeber what the site is about. Take a look...
Want to take notes about a particular Web page? MyStickes are like sticky notes for the Web. Once you've registered (free), you can add sticky notes wherever you like. When you come back to a page, the sticky will be there.
Students: Don't have time to read a full Web page and make notes? Add a sticky indicating how far you got to save time.
Professors: Save your precious office hours by adding important notations about assignments or specific problems on your course's official Web site. Helpful for students who cannot make your office hours.
MyStickies lets you save the web for later
To put it simply, MyStickies allows you to place little yellow squares of digital paper anywhere and everywhere you feel like in the whole wide web. Along with the ability to put sticky notes on webpages mystickies offers a powerful interface to browse, search, sort, edit and generally have a wonderfull time with your sticky notes from any computer that has internet access.
Goodbye to Bookmarks?
MyStickies is like bookmarks on steroids. While bookmarks store the title of a webpage and its link, they do little to help you find what was important about the page and why exactly you chose to mark it. MyStickies solves this problem by giving you the power to mark up the page the way you like, and a tool to find notes easily and efficiently.

30 Boxes is an online calendaring tool. Instead of clicking on dates and times to enter appointments, you can type in its single entry box something like, "Lunch, noon Friday with Frank," and it will create the appointment based on that.
Despite its simplicity, it's more than an events calendar with a rudimentary understanding of scheduling grammar. It's also an aggregation service for time-based updates from your social sites and for those of your friends. For example, 30 Boxes will put your blog updates, Twitter messages, Upcoming.org calendar items, and Flickr photos on your calendar, as well as those from your friends.
Tips for use in college:
Students: In addition to managing your schedule, use 30boxes to follow events and news from your campus' Web site or course Web sites.
Professors: If you have a course Web site that allows student comments, you can easily keep track of them via a comment Web feed, which will display a snippet in 30boxes on the day it was posted.
