Then I determined to try to use Evernote and wonder now how I lived without it. It is that perfect tool for those in between stages of research, and so many other things in my daily life. Have fun.<br />Thanks for stopping by.Diane Gould Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362418860289987479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211578983663662204.post-28711847741138277922015-12-02T09:15:27.863-08:002015-12-02T09:15:27.863-08:00I just recently (a couple months ago) returned to ...I just recently (a couple months ago) returned to Evernote, and somehow this time, it's sticking ;p Enjoyed this post and especially the link to the note you created. Even more, I enjoyed your previous post about Evernote (Useful Tool...). I did up a post on <a href="https://creativeancestry.wordpress.com/category/tech-tips/" rel="nofollow">my own blog</a> as I found myself writing out how I was using it and sort of cementing it in my brain anyway, so why not make a post, right?<br /><br /> The thing with Evernote is that it can be as fluid as you and as you make changes to your process or find better ways to do things, Evernote is excellent at adapting to your new ways. As a way of managing the "in between" stages of research, it can't be beat.<br /><br />I rambled, but the tl;dr is: thanks for a helpful read :)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11409539582246159327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211578983663662204.post-65224656661679411362015-11-29T16:59:25.475-08:002015-11-29T16:59:25.475-08:00You echo my sentiments exactly.

I do use the search function and the email option also, so I'm happy with a premium membership. My $5 is well worth it to keep this company offering what it gives us all. Who ever thought of this program? I can't think back two years ago before I began using it because I use it every day.<br />Thank for stopping by.Diane Gould Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362418860289987479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211578983663662204.post-43077721420122451752015-11-29T16:57:04.104-08:002015-11-29T16:57:04.104-08:00Hillary,

I had used it for the rest of my life but once I started using it for genealogy- wow! <br /><br />EN can read words inside documents and images, even some script- it does wonderful, thorough searches.<br /><br />Do be careful with EN for personal info- it is not secure. Any sensitive info should be encrypted if you want to use it in EN.<br /><br />I highly recommend upgrading- it adds functionality, syncs more frequently, and besides, if people don't pay for it, they will go out of business. $5/month is not that much for the time-saving and useful functions of EN. It seems like it was made for genealogy research!pmmhttp://heritageramblings.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211578983663662204.post-31718538204709545842015-11-29T01:23:42.057-08:002015-11-29T01:23:42.057-08:00I am finding that I am using Evernote much more th...I am finding that I am using Evernote much more than I used to as I try to get more organised. I have recently upgraded with an offer as I needed to use the email facility and know that I will soon be wanting to use the search capabilities for pdf files. The newspapers available from the British newspaper archive are downloaded as pdf files and are an invaluable source.

As I kept hearing my friends in the genealogy world rave about it, I figured I should at least try it. Once it did, there was no stopping me. It has proved invaluable in all areas of my life. Even keeping the records for my mother who is in assisted living. I frequently need to produce the power of attorney and medical records, which are always with me, since EN syncs to all my devices. You can record audio, add photos, annotate any record, link to any site. It's an incredible program. Good luck and have fun. <br />Thanks for your comment.

If you find yourself near or exceeding the monthly upload limit, or wishing you could forward emails to your notebooks directly, then it would be well worth it. I use the program so much that I personally don't mind paying the $5 monthly fee just to support them. <br />Thanks for stopping by.
