Getting Organized with Evernote
Posted by Luc in 
Social Media is a very important component of today’s business world. Large and Small corporations alike are scrambling to harness the Internet’s power via all the different sites and tools available to them to perform SEO and gain fans online. The use of smart phones and tablets is ever increasing as well, as they provide a way for employees to receive all this media from wherever they are.
One element that may be overlooked among all the bandwidth is how one can stay organized. With the world moving so fast, a healthy idea can take off quite quickly and should not be overlooked. Note taking and staying on top of your schedule has never been more important, nor has it ever been more expected.
Evernote is a simple program you download to your desktop or your smart phone. It allows you to keep various notes, which can be sorted, organized, and searched within the Evernote program. You can attach images, videos, and voice clips, all of which can be taken with screen shots, cameras, and microphones. It can also add geolocation tags to any notes saved.
The major advantage to Evernote, is that you can save all your notes to the online server, and sync it to your account. So basically, you can open Evernote from any computer or phone, and have all your data appear instantly however it was lasted synced.
The software comes free with 40MB/Month and a few ads within the program, or for $5/month with 500MB/Month. It runs on Windows, Android, Mac OS X, and WebOS, and recently broke the 3 million user mark.
I’m the kind of guy who gets a lot of random ideas, and who also forgets them quite easily. Having Evernote helps me a lot each day because I can keep all my ideas stored in one program that I can open up from anywhere.
