Goojet, a company that offers a mobile “organizer,” a place to store notes and other things so that you can access them while on the go, has won the start-up competition at the conference Le Web 3 in Paris, France.

The company combines your mobile and web world, letting you access its software from both your phone and your computer. You can organize notes, votes, RSS feeds, pictures, and other documents. Yesterday, Goojet launched their beta version.

More than 30 startup companies participated in the competition. Second place went to Palo Alto, Calif.’s PLYMedia, which develops transparent media layers over web video. Third place was taken by the web based operating system G.ho.st, with headquarters in Israel and Palestine (which we’ve covered previously).

Goojet wants to make mobile services simple, and serve all java-enabled phones with internet access. You register online, and then you get an SMS sent to your phone, which lets you download the application.

The company has filed several patents.

CTO and co-founder Ludovic Le Moan (pictured below, with a modest grin) told VentureBeat his goal is to keep navigation simple, with drag and drop features. The service is free, but the company is also planning to offer some premium services. One example Le Moan mentioned is conference calls. It also wants to let people create their own services for the software, and then share any resulting revenue with them. Theses services can then be used by, and shared, with other users.

Goojet recently raised 2.3 MEUR ($3.4 MUSD), mainly from two VCs: Partech International and Elaia Partners. The company was founded one and a half years ago, and is based in southernFrance (Toulouse) and employs 15 people.
