Earlier today a beta version of iCloud.com accidentally leaked 2 new web apps, Notes and Reminders, presumably coming to iCloud web-portal. These apps make perfect sense to be on iCloud.com, as they already sync over iCloud across iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad devices, and Apple has added them as apps to the upcoming OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
The Reminders and Notes web apps weren't functional, nor was the login, and Apple quickly pulled the developer site offline. In other words, we weren't supposed to see this yet.
If we were to guess, WWDC 2012 would be the logical place for Apple to debut new iCloud features. That's where Steve Jobs debuted iCloud itself last year, and now more than ever the WWDC keynote is Apple's biggest software and services stage.
Unfortunately, there's no sign of Photo Stream yet, which would be nice given the impending loss of MobileMe galleries. Nor is there any sign of iTunes in the Cloud or iTunes Match online access yet.
That's when it will start to become really interesting.

iCloud.com development site reveals Notes and Reminders web apps
nice, hope we get it soon and more functionality...
After showing off the Reminders and Notes apps in Mountain Lion, I'd say including them in iCloud was kind of a given, especially because, like Lion currently has, iCloud already has notes and reminders, they're just stuck in the Mail and Calendar apps.
It's only a matter of time before everything is live on iCloud.com. It's an obvious logical step. Whats their iCloud slogan? everything everywhere. I can't wait, I have a feeling apple are about to go into overdrive and I CANNOT WAIT to see apple wipe the floor with google. am eagerly watching :)
As much as I'd like to think Apple could threaten Google on the web, I don't see that as realistic. Google, if nothing else, has a core business of selling ads that tie to kick-butt web apps...they are a web company, first. Apple is a hardware/software company first. Apple's just never been good at web services.
