You can also clip any type of information and attach it to a to do or reminder in Evernote. It’s also helpful when you visit a city several years later and want to pull up your old info, like a cool restaurant or hotel you found. The Frug likes to make reservations way in advance and this comes in handy when trying to instantly pull up flight, hotel and event details I lined up four months ago. like PDX for an upcoming trip to Portland. You can add your own tags like “Taxes” or “Vacation“ or “To Do.” This browser plug-in / extension is available for most modern browsers and is super convenient for quickly saving a simplified version of any article, stripping away all of the extraneous screaming headlines and other unrelated information like banner ads with dancing monkeys.įor traveling, I like to add the airport code as a tag or note to make things easier to find. Evernote then saves all kinds of information to help you find that page in the future. Once you add Evernote to your browser, you can clip and quickly tag information on any webpage. This is where the personal search elements really come in handy. All of these sync with one free Evernote account. I also added the free Evernote App to my iPad, Google Chrome, and the desktop version for my Mac. This included text in logos like Sunspot below. Even the text in the photo of the sign was automatically synced and searchable. The photo automatically included a map and was now searchable by the address, name of the property, date time month location etc. I took a picture of a place I wanted to stay at the beach. I remember this because every note is automatically annotated with a date time and location. A free note taking, smartphone, web and desktop app linked to the cloud. They are basically useless broken links from companies I don’t recall much about. I have hundreds of bookmarks, dating back years. There’s just not enough information in most domain names or descriptions to make bookmarks very useful. Search even becomes more difficult with all of the similar sounding Web 2.0 names out there. What was the name of that company that makes that free widget? Wazzle, Ziplot, Xplant. This can be especially frustrating at work. If the thought comes to you again this certainly makes it hard to find. Have you ever scribbled a quick note, found something on your smartphone or online and bookmarked it, only to never find it again? Sure, the bookmark in your browser worked fine, it’s just you’re having trouble remembering some of the details, like what it was you thought was so great about the company, idea, article, gadget or piece of information in the first place.
