Note Taking Made Easy

Following on from my previous post, I thought it would be a good idea to go into some detail regarding my latest software installations.  The first of which is Evernote.

I have a serious issue when it comes to getting focused on one particular project as well as coming up with ideas and then forgetting them when it comes to trying to implement new features.  Evernote is a comprehensive note-taking application that will allow you to synchronise notes taken from a variety of sources.  You can install the Evernote software on a Windows PC, Mac, iPhone/iPod Touch, a Windows powered Mobile, your browser or even just from a SanDisk U3 Flash Drive. 

The notes that you take using Evernote don’t have to be limited to text.  You can also include images, audios, hand-written notes (or mouse-drawn), PDF files and other attachments.

The video below is less than a one minute video that describes the basics of Evernote very simply.

If you took the time to watch the video you will hear that Evernote offers both a free and a paid account.  I doubt majority of users will be required to upgrade as you are offered 40 MB of upload allowance per month without paying a penny!

I highly recommend Evernote as a way of keeping track of various projects and allowing you to keep an up-to-date set of notes that are central to one location.  It saves having a mass of papers that you carry around everywhere and there is a massive reduction in the possibility of you losing or misplacing any notes that you may take.
