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? ....
