What it does

Chrome notepad that stays on browser pages while you read. Unlike popups, unlike separate note apps, this one stays right there on the page and still out of your way.

Your ultimate thought companion.

Chrome Notepad Spaces allows you to save more time on admin work and focus more on teaching. The simplest way to take notes while reading online. Highlight text, take notes, read on. No app switching. Type. Drag. Resize. Collapse. Toggle Themes. Just like on any real page. Writing something down while browsing is harder than it should be. Not in another tab. Not in another app. Right where you're already reading. Open a note on any website. It floats over the page. Drag it, resize it, collapse it. One keyboard shortcut. Always available. Notes auto-save as you type. Track tasks. Color and highlight text. Format with rich text. I reply to every message. Feedback, bugs, feature ideas; all…from chromenotepad.com
