Springpad - A Bright New Alternative to Evernote for Android

The sole competitor to the ultimate smartphone notekeeper Evernote is here! According to research, the human mind is capable of remembering every single thing they have experienced and further to that can remember it to the very end. But the problem arises when they are made to recall a particular instance and that’s where we take the hit and falter. But the human mind has come around these limitations by developing and learning to use tools that enable us to remember things that we should remember, especially those ideas, reminders and activities that are vital to our lives. One of the simple yet ingenious solutions we developed as a society was to put up sticky yellow post-it notes or other small chits of paper that would stick to one end of the wall or noticeboard. These notes would list all the key activities we need to take care of in our daily schedules. This functionality was extended to the world of technology with an added layer of sophistication for the convenience of users who actively use desktops, smartphones and tablets. This amazing note-keeping and schedule-planning functionality has finally has made its way to our Android devices.
