I personally throw everything I can into Evernote. For instance, the web-based automation service if this then that, IFTT as it’s known, will, for instance, append a line to an Evernote note every time you get a tweet creating an effective backup solution. You can add some tags such as “California”, “zin”, and “jammy” to make the note even more specic and personal.Įvernote has a widely supported API (applications programmers’ interface), so many other apps can read and write data into Evernote. Since you took the picture with your phone, Evernote also has the gps data, time and date attached to the image. Take a picture of a wine label, and Evernote will transcribe the text in the image using optical character recognition, so when you search for Zinfendel, you’ll find the image of the wine bottle. You name it, and Evernote can probably store it. You can upload a PDF, email a note, clip an image from a website. It’s general purpose is to store, sort and help you find anything you throw at it. It’s secure, it’s cloud-based, it’s mobile and it’s on all major platforms.įor the uninitiated, Evernote is a cloud-based, free service with apps on every major desktop and mobile platform. I can share data with my provider, or family members. I can pull in data from external sources like my quantified self gadgets. I’m able to store and track my health history. I’ve got a new personal electronic medical record. It makes the rest of this considerably more pleasant for us both. But I thought I’d get that one out of there way. Spoiler alert: I’m not dying and there doesn’t appear to be anything major wrong with me.
