First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method to be executed at least in part in a computing device for multimedia note taking in a mobile computing device, comprising:
- determining a corresponding pair of note documents in a mobile note taking application and in a desktop note taking application in response to a synchronization indication;
determining elements of each note document to be synchronized;
converting a format of each element for compatibility with a target note taking application; and
inserting the converted elements to the target note taking application.

Abstract
A software-based mechanism for taking multimedia notes while using a mobile computing device and synchronizing with a desktop note taking application is provided. A note document containing textual data and objects representing other data types may be synchronized in whole or in part between the two applications. The documents including file formatting of the non-text data may be converted to a preferred format during synchronization.

13. A system for providing a unified environment for capturing dynamic information suitable for use on a mobile computing device, the system comprising:
-
a mobile note taking application configured to; generate a note document that combines textual data and non-text data represented by an object; and enable inserting, reviewing, editing, and removing of the textual and non-text data associated with objects; a desktop note taking application configured to; generate another note document that combines textual data and non-text data represented by an object; and enable inserting, reviewing, editing, and removing of the textual and non-text data associated with objects; and a synchronization engine configured to; synchronize note documents generated by the note taking applications by converting a format of at least one element of a note document on one note taking application and moving the element to a corresponding note document on the other note taking application. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A computer-readable medium having computer executable instructions for synchronizing multimedia note taking between a mobile computing device and another computing device, the instructions comprising:
-
generating a first note document that combines textual data and non-text data represented by an object; determining elements of the first note document to be synchronized with a second note document; and synchronizing the first and second note documents by converting a format of at least one element of the first note document moving the converted element to the second note document. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
