| September 29, 2011 | 0 Comments

The “Work Smarter Not Harder!” series doesn’t suggest you completely shirk your responsibilities as a good student. Instead, it encourages you to work SMARTER, not HARDER. This week’s WSNH tip is Evernote!


EVERNOTE

Evernote 300x187

Evernote is a note taking app that lets you capture, organize, and explore your life. With Evernote you can clip webpages, capture pictures, record voice memos, and a host of other features. You can revisit your notes at any time and search through tagged entries to find whatever you want to remember.

Additionally, your Evernote account can be synced with your mobile device and extended to your browser, making it omnipresent in your life. It is the most  complete solution for taking notes on the market. The only other application that competes with Evernote is OneNote by Microsoft (but Evernote is free, OneNote is not). Here is a quick tutorial of Evernote.
