I’m not much for unbridled product endorsement, but a recent addition to my productivity suite has provided me such pleasure that I feel inclined to make mention of it. Evernote goes beyond simple list making, though it performs that task quite well, offering easy note taking via text, email, voice record and camera phone. It also allows for quick, easy archiving of webpages, or sections of webpages, including their embedded links, with a simple click. All of the above pieces of remeberance, once imported to Evernote, can be quickly organized into various folders and further catalogued by Gmail-style tags. And the whole heaving mass of personally useful information can be keyword searched, and any notes that incorporate images, whether downloaded from the web, a digital camera or shot with a camera phone, mesh with Evernote’s text recognition capabilities so text within the photos is subject to the search function as well. And the kicker, the function that makes Evernote the best of its kind in my mind, is it’s ability to work and sync across all my platforms, i.e. iPhone, home and work desktops and the web-based application. Did I mention that it’s free? Check it out: evernote.com
