In "My Tools, Techniques, and Ideas about Digital Learning," Derek Newman talks about using Backpack:
The other tool I use daily is 37signals Backpack application. This is one web application that is bound to grow and grow. Their homepage states that over 1 million people use their products to manage their lives. I use it to take notes on books, digital reading, and anything else that I want. We also use the calendar feature to coordinate our family. Having one central calendar the entire family can access and change makes our lives a lot easier.
