Throughout the day, I have one note in Evernote that’s constantly open and being added to I call that note “Things.” In “Things,” I just add anything and everything as I discover it or think of it. In the rare event that I need to access Evernote somewhere else, I can look at the web version, but I genuinely cannot remember the last time I did that. All of them are synced up to the same account, obviously, so I can seamlessly share notes and access them between all of those devices. I currently have Evernote installed on my desktop (where I do most of my writing), my laptop (where I write when I’m traveling), and my phone. For me, it’s a mix of an infinitely long pocket notebook and a filing cabinet with magic search capabilities that takes up essentially no space. It is such an essential part of my daily activity at this point that I would really struggle without it. I’m not kidding or exaggerating in the least. I personally use Evernote perhaps two or three dozen times a day. The purpose of it, at least as I see it, is to serve as a mental filing cabinet for ideas and bits of information that you’re going to want to use and access later. I absolutely do not recommend storing any valuable personal data in Evernote, but that’s not the purpose of it. There’s a very smooth app available for iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux, plus their website itself allows you to access and edit notes, so you can access them pretty much anywhere. They store all of the notes for you in the cloud and you can access these notes from anywhere. So… What Is Evernote?Įvernote is a simple digital tool that lets you keep and organize notes of all kinds – text, pictures, sound recordings, and mixed media.
Over the next few days, several readers contacted me requesting the article (and more than a few swapped some Evernote tips with me), so what follows is that requested article: a detailed guide to how I use Evernote, my most essential free online tool. I gave him an answer that almost stretched into something that needed to become its own article, but instead, I cut it short and asked for readers to contact me if they wanted a full article about my uses for Evernote.
A few weeks ago, I answered an Ask the Simple Dollar question from Jim, who wanted to know how I use Evernote.
