Seems to be a user-interface ommission .... if I browse to a game, there's no obvious way to update the notebook without making a move, when it's my turn.
When it's my opponent's turn I can do it easily. When it's my turn, there's only the Move button (no save notebook).
Why do I want this? When I have many games on the go, I browse through them all, play the easy moves, and come back to mull over the harder ones. By making notes to myself during the first examination it makes it easier to filter through the game list later on.

It is now your opponent's move.

... would also like a "resign" option, even when it's not my turn.
Having just thrown away a perfectly playable game (you know - when you see the King/Rook fork your opponent can play the MICROSECOND before bashing "Move" but your finger is already moving too fast to stop it ....) I'd like to cut short my misery and not have to wait for the inevitable.
... and one more comment on this feature request.
When it's not your turn to move you can update the notebook, but it seems to default to your regular "after move preference" setting.
For playing games, I have that setting to "go to next waiting game". When I've pulled up a game where it's not my turn I can't save the notebook without it hopping to the next game.
I'd suggest that "save notebook" always refreshes the current game. It gives visual confirmation that the changes were made, and also offers the "go to next waiting game" as an option once the page has loaded.
