Do you carry a backpack? Does it have lots of your life stuff in it? Would you like to convert all that important stuff to a digitally organized, always available, and less heavy format? Then check out
backpackit.com. The
New York Times,
Business Week,
PC World and
more have really good things to say about it. With over 300,000 people using the site, you can keep your to-do lists, notes, ideas, and calendar online with backpackit. And you can keep it private or share. It’s up to you. The uses of the site are literally endless. But specifically for students this site would be great for
- notetaking
- homework, exam, and project reminders
- compiling resources
- posting club or organization information
- your school and work schedules
- posting your favorites pictures
- keeping track of all your favorites in one spot
You’ll start with a homepage and then add more pages as needed. You can set up lists, notes, and add a writeboard which has RSS capabilities. Save your favorites, keep a calendar, and be totally organized all in one spot. Here’s my backpack example.
