Hi Joe, thanks for the feedback. In response to your two questions:
1. The "user" is responsible for creating a note associate to a contact technically. They could also do this for a variety of other entities, like sale, or company perhaps.
However, the user is repsonsible for creating a ton of things... notes, companies, sales, contacts, etc. So rather than overload and create a very wide interface for "user", I had figured on moving to more finer grained specialized interfaces for individual entities (hence the note/contact manager idea.)
2. A note has basic attributes like audit information, regarding, details, etc. Its analagous to a postit note that you attach to a other entities. Since a note is associated to a contact, Contact could aslo be an attribute. However, it can be associated with many other entities, as discussed above.
I'm trying to get a feel for what makes sense the most from a design as well as usability perspective.
Thanks again!
