I've never used Evernote before, I had heard of it just never got around to using it, so took this as an opportunity to have a play around. I recently installed Diigo for organising bookmarks (as opposed to Delicious) which also allows me to save images, web pages, text into tags/folders so in a way I was looking at how Evernote could improve upon this too.
The first thing I noticed is that I can also install the app to my smart phones...I should state, I love apps and I love when I can sync accounts between my computer and phone, so already this was looking good! After installing Evernote I read through the start page and noticed a few features I know I'm going to like:
- Text in any images becomes searchable
- Create to do's - what can I say I'm a list makeer!
- Search and find everything - and they mean everything
- Save Twitter messages
After using Evernote for a day I must admit I quite like it. Recently I had started using Microsoft OneNote but I much prefer the interface for Evernote and being able to sync notes with my iPhone is amazing. I think this is a tool I will keep using.
Update: I came across this in an Evernote email, being a keen knitter myself I'm keen to give it a try!
