===== Why? ==
==== Brainstorming ==

scratched an itch / first text editor / then I created a little java application carried around on a memory stick / web-based / returned to pain text files, because I found it to cumbersome to ... / What I missed were the sort and filter options and the browser-based access from everywhere. / But why web-based then? / I dont want to mess around with sync tools on different laptops desktops and PDA's / Just have only one single version of my documents. This version is always up to date and it lives in the internet. / I don't like to carry a laptop around. I just need an ordinary computer with internet connection somewhere and I can start working. / [[http://inhalt.monster.de/2517_de-DE_p1.asp|Eisenhower-Method]] possible
