SoundNote

The app that I have discovered this week is called SoundNote.  This is an app that can be very beneficial for students and for others looking to take notes.  This app is a note taking app.  It allows for you to take notes directly onto the touch screen of the iPad.  There is an added bonus to this app.  Has anybody ever been in a lecture and has not been able to get down everything that the professor says or what is being presented on a power point presentation?  What is very nice about this app is that it records the lecture for you so you can review the lecture afterwards.  Now, I'm sure there are some people who would just rather by a tape recorder and then take down their own notes, but there is something else that is special about this app.  It allows for you to click on a word in your notes and the corresponding audio recording will automatically jump to the spot.  This is really remarkable.  The word that you click has to be an identifiable word that is not used excessively, however.  This is a very useful app that I have discovered only a few days ago.  Surely there are many more apps to be discovered.  I hope to discover more and more every week...every day!.

  1. This is downright awesome. I seriously need to invest in an iPad. My iPhone is cool but after going to the apple store and picking up an iPad, you just realize that it's truly something else. Awesome blog, I'll be following.
