This is a cool idea and the execution is slick too, but I'd like to know more about anonymity and privacy of both content and search results.
I'm talking about both the privacy of cloud notes, and of the explicit searches when terms are selected with the mouse for a narrow search.
People often take notes about things that are private or personal, and this is explicitly creating a historical association between your thoughts and (public) web searches on those thoughts.
You normally think of notes as a self-contained thing (even if the container is in the cloud), while this is broadcasting your note terms to third parties as you compose them.
I can't find a privacy policy link. So I'd like to know more.
Great line of thinking and very valid arguments, and also the reason we didn't think of any ad supported model.
Currently we encrypt the notes and store them within appengine, while the search results are saved/cached as plaintext. No formal privacy policy atm, but we don't give your notes and neither does one of the third parties (GA as the content comes after GA, intercom and sentry).
