Get Gifting Done with Evernote

While I’ve abandoned going all in with Evernote, there are certain things that I’m finding it does really, really well. Like keeping shopping lists. It does an especially great job in helping me keep tabs on shopping lists of the holiday variety. I have been able to keep track of all of the possible gift

Everything in Evernote: All Out

It really opened up my eyes as to what this powerful software-as-a-service solution could

Evernote Essentials 2.0

A lot went into the initial edition of Evernote Essentials, and Brett Kelly has upped the content with Evernote Essentials 2.0. I have the first version of the book, and it has been a valuable resource in my quest to wrap my head around all that Evernote has to offer. This book has been a

Merlin, The X Factor and Evernote

I’m a bit late to the game on this one, but Merlin Mann was a guest on a recent episode of the Mac Power Users podcast. This was his second appearance on the podcast; it easily could have been made into his second and third appearances, though. That’s because it was over two hours in
