RESENDING UNDER A MORE DESCRIPTIVE SUBJECT LINE.
Hi Mike,
Sounds like a good product per you and others here. I haven't tried it (yet).
What do you use it to do, Malcolm?
I literally live in the Evernote application and use this application
for just about everything.
A quick (but not complete) list of how I use Evernote:
1. A personal diary notebook where I manage my time
2. Project specific notebooks for work I do for customers
3. A research notebook where I store notes on topics I research myself
4. An images notebook that I store interesting images/clipart in for
inspiration
5. A contact notebook where I track the people I've worked with
6. A coding notebook where I store coding snippets in a variety of
languages
7. Personal paperwork - scanned copies of important info -
For this list I think number 6 might be the most interesting for further
discussion. In the past I stored my code snippets in giant text files.
Searching these files became unwieldy because most of my searches became
linear searches. Being able to store each snippet in a note makes my
searches more efficient and doesn't clog up my drive. Using notes vs
files as containers for my snippets also allows me to store multiple
files in a snippet if a snippet is a group of files (code,
configuration, notes) and allows me to use colored text to distinguish
my own comments and concerns about specific code blocks in ways that
stand out visually more than abbreviations. If there's configuration
involved I can also include screenshots and everything is packaged in a
logical linear flow vs a random list of files in a zip archive.
I encourage others on this list to check out Evernote even if its for
nothing other than as a code snippet manager.
I'm happy to answer questions on this product or specific use cases.
Malcolm
