- I know that many engineer's were forced to keep log books (or lab books)
- during some period of there college career. And it seems that many of us have
- picked up this horrible habit and continue to do it in industry. But I have
- noticed one thing that I have noticed is lacking and that is the creation of
- a really useful online version of our lab books.
-
- Is this simply because the marketing bozos don't think there is a market? Are
- we too timimd to ask for them, and too busy to write one ourselves? Do we
- even want such a thing? Are there legal reprecussion having all your notes on
- the computer instead of on poaper (ie, patents)?
-
- Any thoughts, ideas, etc?

- ps - If someone were to try to write and engineers' tool, what would it
- include as its pieces? Would each discipline need its own module? ....
