-[Nottr, a new online note taking application][1], launched yesterday. Nottr offers the ability to create and save notes, organize them with tags, and share them with others. 

Although not currently available, the site promises to eventually feature a way to send notes via cellphones and email and plans to allow for scheduled reminders via SMS or e-mail.

The site is simple and easy to use, in fact it's layout felt somehow familiar... oh yeah it's an orange GMail. A lot of sites use fairly similar layouts and designs, and there is something to be said for a standardization of interfaces, but some may feel Nottr has crossed the line between imitation and rip-off.

Perhaps the derivative design is simply to ease the transition in the event of a sale to Google. I have to admit that Nottr on it's own probably won't be a regular destination for me, but if Google were to snatch it up and roll it into GMail it would fit nicely with the Gmail feature set.

I like Nottr and it think it has the potential to be useful for students especially, but at the moment its feature set is fairly limited. I would like to see a way to export saved notes to other formats. A simple text file export would be nice, multiple text files in a zip download would be even better. RSS support is conspicuously lacking which means there's little or no way to share your notes beyond your public page.
