Evernote for daily note taking and organizing your day
Ralf Haller

I have been using Evernote now for quite a while, primarily to organize the weekly and daily tasks. Also whenever I have a new idea I write it down as a note and sync it when there is WLAN access available, like at my home or in the office. Evernote has evolved form a simple note taking tool to an archiving system and how this looks has been described by Guy Kawasaki at length. I don’t think I will use all of these things but perhaps you will find some of them useful? Forwarding e-mails to my Evernote e-mail address and with that archiving them is something I have decided to do now. Here’s a summary of all the things you can do:
- Forward email to your unique Evernote email address.
- Upload text, photo, or voice recordings via an iPhone, Palm Pre, or Windows Mobile phone.
- Drag-and-drop audio, images, PDFs, and files into Evernote on the desktop.
- Attach Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF documents to an email and send them to your Evernote email address.
- “Save PDF to Evernote” from the printing dialog box.
- Clip websites and blogs.
- Send documents directly from a scanner.
- Tweet text with the string “@myEN”.
- Upload from cameras directly to Evernote using the wireless EyeFi card.
