Then, as I booked various activities and intra-country trips, I clipped the important bits (contact info, dates, confirmation numbers) from their webpages and saved these too. Even my sloppy handwriting was (mostly) searchable. Leading up to my recent trip to New Zealand, I scribbled a rough itinerary down in my notebook, snapped a picture of it and saved it into Evernote. Then I'll build on it over time, adding more notes and often a few bookmarks and things clipped from web pages.
When I think of something I want to blog about, I'll create a note in Evernote and tag it accordingly. Afterwards, my notes are tagged and searchable, and because Evernote syncs, my notes are immediately accessible across all my devices. Evernote can read text in the images(!), so the labels are searchable. I take a snapshot of each label with my iPhone or grab the description from the K & L Wines website (the best wine shop in SF, with an amazing website to boot). There are so many possible uses of Evernote, and I've only scratched the surface. At the same time, when I've sung the praises of Evernote to my friends and colleagues, I've struggled to articulate exactly what it's good for. In Evernote's case, it's iPhone app and otherwise, seeing as it also works via a desktop app (both Windows and Mac OS), Firefox add-on, regular web, mobile web and email.Įvernote has many fans, many vocal fans, so I suppose I'm just joining the choir, but it's a choir worth joining. I could almost go so far as to say that Evernote is the best free app period, iPhone or otherwise.
