Evernote Reminders and Shortcuts

Evernote, the resource for taking notes continues to evolve adding new features.  The Evernote website is http://evernote.com.  The resource is also an app for most mobile devices, such as the iPad, iPhone, and Android phone.  When you add notes and media, they are automatically synced to your Evernote cloud site.  There are two new features for Evernote, reminders and shortcuts.

When you open a file, for instance the notes that I took at the Summer Institute of Nursing Informatics (SINI) last July, there is a menu at the bottom right of the notes page with several icons.  The first icon is the looks like an alarm clock.  When you click on it, a pop-up menu appears with:
  • Mark as done
  • Clear reminder
  • Change date
  • Remove date
The second image is a star.  When you click on the star, it creates a shortcut to the file.

There are two other icons.  One is a shortcut to Skitch and the other allows for sharing with:
  • Message
  • Twitter
  • Print
  • Mail
  • Copy link
 Although there are many notes apps available, Evernote remains a leader.  It is free, powerful, and versatile.
