If you’ve been wondering where Snaptic and 3Banana have gone and why something called Catch Notes has been bugging you to install it, you can stop: Snaptic has changed their name to Catch with 3Banana simultaneously becoming Catch Notes. With the name change comes a new update to the app. Here’s everything you can expect when upgrading to the latest version.

3banana Notes makes it easy to store your notes in a cloud and access them anywhere. Any information you throw into 3banana will sync to a free web account at Snaptic.com. You can also create notes on the web and see them appear on your phone which provides a seamless connection between your notes and devices. There are also a lot of options to share your notes so if someone missed a class and wants to borrow your notes, put ‘em in 3banana.

One of my favorite features of 3Banana is the sharing – it’s great at letting you create and share everything from a single note to your whole notebook. At the bottom of every note, there are links to share it in a huge number of ways – email, Facebook, Twitter, or even just by a link. This makes 3Banana perfect for sharing information with friends, colleagues and anyone else in your life.

One other thing I like is the tagging system. Instead of tagging individual notes by dragging and dropping or manually adding tags, 3Banana uses something like Twitter’s hashtags. At the end of a note, if it’s a task, typing “#task” adds it to that category and makes it searchable under the “tasks” category.

If you’re looking for a simple way to take, store, and share notes in the cloud, 3Banana makes organizing your notes easy with notes based on in-text hashtags.

You can sign up for an account at 3Banana or use your existing Google credentials to jump right in and try it out. You can create basic notes simply by typing in the dialogue box, or enhance the note taking process by including HTML tags and images. 3Banana automatically recognizes pasted links and common formatting like phone numbers. You can categorize your notes by using hash tags like #tasks to tag your notes.

Evernote’s G1-optimized website is only a few days old, but 3banana is already offering it competition in the note taking department. Though both products are good memory-aid services, 3banana has one advantage that Evernote currently doesn’t offer: native Android support.

3banana Notes is a free note-taking app that syncs between Android and an online account. The CEO of the company that developed the app explains it was created so “users could quickly jot down a thought or tag a photo on their Android smart phone with as few keystrokes as possible, and then sync and share those notes wirelessly and effortlessly.”

Users can snap a photo and then add a text note explaining its significance. That note can then be synced or shared with friends. A trip to the grocery could help you discover a new wine you’re not sure about purchasing, so snap a photo and attach the note “Look into this brand.” Interesting books, ideas gained from newspapers, sporting events, tech conventions, or any other situation could be cause to create a note that will help remember thoughts at a later time.

Aside from jotting down photo and/or text notes easily, 3banana can also:

• Reverse sync so notes made on the computer appear on the Android phone
• Label notes to provide category separation
• Share notes via Facebook, Twitter, or E-mail.

3banana is available in the “Productivity” section of the Android Market. Register for an online account at 3banana.com

Original Dutch Post: Slim Android-notitieblok van 3banana

Na een paar dagen spelen met je G1 besef je dat twee applicaties toch echt wel ontbreken: een goede mediaspeler en een notitieblok. Terwijl het toetsenbordje van de G1 juist zo handig is voor het maken van notities. 3banana springt in het gat met een ’slimme’ notitie-applicatie voor Android, waarmee je draadloos kunt synchroniseren. De applicatie heet 3banana Notes en is gratis te downloaden. Er zit ook een link naar sociale netwerksites zoals Twitter en Facebook in.

3banana Notes is bedoeld om spontane ideeën vast te leggen: die fantastische film, het restaurantje waar je nog eens wilt eten, of die geweldige domeinnaam, die je tijdens de lunchpauze opeens hebt bedacht. 3banana Notes voor Android synchroniseert draadloos met de online dienst van 3banana, waar je de notities en ook foto’s online kunt bekijken. Je kunt notities delen met anderen. Elke gedeelde notitie heeft een unieke URL die je kunt rondsturen of op populaire websites als Twitter of Facebook kunt publiceren.

3banana Notes is gratis te installeren via Android Market.

The application is called 3banana Notes and is free to download. There is also a way to share with social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook.

You can share notes with others. Each shared note has a unique URL you can send or publish to popular sites like Twitter or Facebook.
