[Wylug-discuss] Digital scrapbook ideas?

[David Holden]

It's an online service but I've found springpad http://springpadit.com
quite nice although it's Linux firefox plugin is buggy (I use the chrome
one) it has many of these features. Excellent Android client also.
Doesn't have the Wiki feature though.
