I couple of weeks ago I wrote a review of David Allen's Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity. As a companion and implementation tool I use Evernote available for free at www.evernote.com.
Evernote is a digital, take everywhere, filing cabinet. I use Evernote multiple times a day across multiple platforms. Evernote is available for Mac, PC, iPad, iPod, iPhone, and Android. Evernote allows you as it says on their website to capture an idea, access it everywhere, and find it fast. Evernote allows you to synch your info in its cloud and it allows you to access it from any computer over the internet, your desktop, and other mobil solutions.
Evernote allows the user to have a giant well organized filing cabinet with out any mess. You do not have to worry about sending the files from one computer to another that has already been done the software will sync itself. Evernote allows you to create text notes, web clips, pdf, snapshots, and audio clips. Evernote allows you to create a virtual treasure trove of information ok.... so what about organization?
Evernote allows an amazing amount of organization with a simple layout. Evernote gives you three basic tools for organization: tags, notes, and notebooks. In my Evernote system I have nested tags that help me get everything organized.
Evernote allows the user to create web clips which is really handy when you are without internet say on a long flight. I will often clip a webpage that I want to read but do not have time to and put it in a tag on Evernote of To Be Read and then it will sync with all of my computers when they are connected to the web. Later when I am without a internet connection I have that saved webpage ready in my Evernote on my laptop.
I have been using Evernote for about six months and I can say that it has helped me to be come more efficient. It has helped me to remember more things. It is a great program and is very useful. Photographers this is a great project management tool. If you do a quick web search you can find a ton of resources about how to implement a solid Evernote system.
