Tip of the Month: Evernote

Thursday, May 6th, 2010

What a great free utility/service for your PCs, macs, and phones.  It organizes your notes, screen shots, web clips, picture images, documents, etc.  It automatically organizes them and does optical character recognition (OCR) on all the images!  You can scan or take a digital image of your notes and they become searchable – WOW.  Millions of users love it and I am one.  Having all these miscellaneous notes from many sources all indexed and available from any of my PCs or iPhone is great.  It is Free!  It also has a paid premium version.

I love clipping info from various web sites and storing them in a folder in Evernote.  You can encrypt sensitive info too.  The search capability makes it easy to find your info later!

1. Capture everything

Chances are, if you can see it or think of it, Evernote can help you remember it.  Type a text note.  Clip a web page.  Snap a photo.  Grab a screenshot.  Evernote will keep it all safe.

2. Organize it (or let us do it)

Everything you capture is automatically processed, indexed, and made searchable.  If you like, you can add tags or organize notes into different notebooks.

3. Find everything fast

Search for notes by keywords, titles, and tags.  Evernote magically makes printed and handwritten text inside your images searchable, too.
