Organize & Save Your Thoughts with Google Keep

“Save your thoughts, wherever you are” – is what Google says about the new notes taking the app, Google Keep.

Google Keep is an online note taking an app that will never skip your thoughts whenever you are whatever you are doing. It syncs the app data on to different devices and let you keep on track.
