Thing 7: Keep

My initial thought to using Google Keep was, "meh."  It was a cool idea, it saves paper, blah blah blah.  But then I started playing around with it a little.  I went through the tasks that we needed and downloaded the app, and now I am actually getting pretty excited to use it.  I was using a Chromebook and trying to add a picture, but all I could access was what I had on my drive.  After I got the phone app, I was impressed that I could take a picture from my phone, and immediately create a note with it.  

I then started tinkering with the reminders, and really like what I saw.  It synced across my laptop, Chromebook, and phone!  I could see using this in class with my iPad.  If I'm outside for class, and realize I don't have enough equipment, I can take a picture of it, set a reminder to go off at the end of class, and have it ready for the next class.  I also like that you can share a note with someone.  I wonder, if I set a timer for a note, share it with someone, do they get the reminder as well?
