Evernote: Your Personal Note-keeper

I love EverNote! Unlike most of the computer applications I rave about, EverNote is not Web-based. (Gasp!) It must be downloaded to your computer. However, ignoring that issue, I think EverNote is one of the best, free products available to help you keep track of all of the pieces of information in your life.

EverNote works as a “scrolling, never-ending note.” You simply write a new note to yourself and it is saved automatically. However, it is more sophisticated than the spiral note pad that sits on your desk. Here are the features that make EverNote so great:

• Full text search capability
  • Search through all of your notes at once for a particular word.
• Tagging
  • You can assign multiple keywords to each note. The keywords show up as categories that you can see at a glance.
• Copy and paste
  • Copy and paste from your email, documents, the Web, anywhere. You can save screen shots, graphics, anything to your personal database.
