Evernote

Hey,

Does anyone use Evernote? I've heard lots of people talk positively about it but never got around to giving much attention. I'd love to hear from fellow Community members who use it for work/personal. Do you have any thoughts/tips?

Thanks

  • Hi All,

    I've never used Evernote.  Heard of it.  Really wanted to check it out.  But it's on my pile of things to look at in some point in the future whenever!

    But I've found the sharing on here useful so I think it's worth me bumping that up the pile.  Currently I use Microsoft One Note, but this sounds so much better.

    Of course those that know me will know that the audio recording feature pricked my ears up.  It would be great to hear some of those audio clips on here perhaps?  Perhaps you can give us a two minute clip on something you've learned today, or an item of interest, or a thought provoking question for the day...?

    I'm not sure how this works with Evernote, but if you can get the audio out into such as MP3/WAV files you can add them on to the DPG Community.  Here's a link that tells you how...

    • The more I use it the more I'm liking it.

      Had it for about a year and only saved pdf's on it as a way of making them easier to search than bald bookmarks.

      I've been using it more and more in the last month and find it's becoming increasingly helpful!

      TIP:  I've just found that you can go into your root directory on your computer, right click, send to. . . surprise, surprise, Evernote, as one of the options!  This saves time for importing - you can do a batch of files backed up for the end of the day.

      TIP:  Also - and this is very useful - create separate notebooks within EN to help keep control of the multiple tags.  You can then at least group things into broad categories to narrow down the content search.

    • Hi Ady,

      Just thought I'd give it a quick go.

      Let's see what happens if I create a link HERE.

      Piece of cake. . .  Happy Smiley

      • Well done Les, you've made it look easy (show off!)

        I saved my audios on evernote, but they won't replay. I think it's the mismatch between systems that i suffer from, or the old software or something.
        I will get round to giving it another go, but not today as I'm partying.

    How things change with Evernote

    • Oh dear, I tried to save some urls this morning as I was looking through some handy websites - but I have just checked and it hasn't happened. No sign of them. (back to the drawing board - or rather the pen and paper!)

      Disappointed.com

      Does anyone know, do I need extra apps in order to save urls?

      All help gratefully received :)

      • Depends on how you have been trying to save them.

        Are you saving just the URL or clipping the whole page?

        • Load up Evernote clipper as an extension if you want to simply clip into EN.

          If you just want to save the URLs then you can do that anywhere - notebook, excel, even email it to yourself.  In EN simply create a new note and then cut and paste the URL onto the page.

          Give it a title (and a tag if needed) so you can easily find it again.

          Boom.

        • I was trying to save the url, I'm wasn't sure how to clip the page - but strangely enough I succededed in doing that for one of the links I was trying to save!

           

          Funny!

  • Another neat way of using evernote to share notes from conferences
