I use Evernote to...
“Without Evernote, I would have been completely lost. I would have had to create hundreds of different folders with substructures. I would have had to back everything up repeatedly to different locations.
It would have been a complete nightmare. So, the research, the note taking and the organization was all done with Evernote.”
—Tim Ferriss, author
“The modern college student has a lot more on his or her plate than just classes. Evernote is the perfect application to save time and help you juggle your many responsibilities.”
—Shep McCallister, student and blogger
“We asked our users to submit some recipes, chose our favorite, clipped it into Evernote, and went to the farmers market to pick up the ingredients.
With goodies in-hand, we met up with Laurine Wickett, chef and owner of Left Coast Catering (and Top Chef contestant), to cook up a great fall meal. Here’s the video of the culinary excitement.”
—Laurine Wickett, chef
“Evernote has been great for all those little notes, pictures, snapshots, websites and other tasty bits of information.
I have Evernote installed on my desktop and on my iPhone, and I sync between the two. It couldn’t be easier or more portable! I honestly don’t know what I would do without it.”
—Brandie Kajino, professional organizer
“Evernote — it’s a fantastic (and powerful) note-taking tool, which helps to capture all sorts of different types of information.
I’ve implemented Evernote both in my own business and with my clients in a variety of ways to help them streamline some of their processes and save them time.”
—Joshua Zerkel, productivity and organizational expert
“If I’m walking around and I see something that needs to be fixed, I can make a new note in Evernote using my phone.
If I have a random thought, or something I need to collect my thoughts on, since I can’t trust myself to remember, I can trust Evernote to remember it.”
—Ray Prock, dairy farmer
“Evernote takes the guess work out of my day. It’s comforting knowing that everything I might need in the future is searchable, always available and stored safely in one place. Regardless of where I start my writing, I’m always sure to have a copy in Evernote, backed up and available to work on whenever I’m ready.”
—Glen Stansberry, writer and web developer
The Evernote Web Clipper lets you save interesting stuff you see on the web.
No more bookmarks, tabs, or open windows. See something you like, clip it and you’ll have it forever. Evernote offer clippers optimized for whatever browser you use.
“We’ll come up with an idea, put it on a whiteboard, take a picture of it, save it to Evernote, tag it and then multiple people can access all the information that we have, from multiple devices.
Before Evernote we would forget that we actually came up with an awesome design because we had already erased that whiteboard.”
—Michael Galpert, founder of Aviary
Evernote is great for comparison shopping and researching a big purchase. Trying to decide which TV to buy, or which car is right for you, can seem nearly impossible.
Use Evernote to clip reviews, prices and features. Have all your research and info in one place; fully searchable (with links) to help you make the right decision. When you get to the store you can pull up all that great research on your phone.
“With Evernote, Chris has a way to find his most valuable speaking notes and information, but perhaps most importantly, it keeps his chaotic ‘travel life’ in check.
Evernote helps him access everything at a moment’s notice, whether it’s via his laptop on the plane or his phone in a cab.”
—Chris Brogan, author and consultant
“I started clipping images that I found on various sites of bouquets, table settings, bridesmaid dresses, etc. When it came time to meet with vendors, I’d whip out my iPhone and scroll through my notebook with them.
It was great to have all of my little inspirations with me at all times – especially when i was in a store trying to find matching ties to my bridesmaid dresses”
—Kasey Fleisher, blogger
“When you are at a conference, trade show or networking event, snap a picture of the people you meet along with their name tags (or have them hold up their business cards). Evernote will automatically make the text in the images searchable. Now, you’ll be able to search for the name and see the face that goes with it.”
“Now I don’t have a gazillion files on my computer in folders I often never look at again.
Evernote has made me feel a lot more confident and relaxed about my research process, which in turn, boosts my creative process. In the end, it’s all about fusing inspiration and knowledge with practical use.”
—Annching Wang, fashion designer
“Evernote has helped me keep track of my ideas so that I can finish songs whenever inspiration strikes. Whether it’s recording guitar riffs or song melodies, or typing in chord changes and song lyrics.
For a songwriter, inspiration doesn’t always come at a convenient time. Most of the time the best songwriting doesn’t happen at a desk.”
—Dave Levy, songwriter
