Evernote Trunk – my integration
That cute little elephant – does he really remember so much? Well, let’s hope so because my Evernote has, oh, about too many notebooks to count and a similar number of tags and notes. The more I load into Evernote the more I love it.
Which is why I was so thrilled I was able to attend the Evernote press conference on July 14th at the W hotel in San Francisco when they announced Phase II of their development. The Trunk. How could Evernote possibly get better? Through 2000 API integrations!
At the press conference 100 of these partnerships were rolled out and there will be many more to come. I’ve been spending time playing with some of them but so far I don’t have a best of list yet. It always takes me some time to work a new piece of technology into my organizing routine. I can tell that I want one of the scanners that scan directly to Evernote. This is not a must-have but just a great feature. I have been in the market for a scanner so these models have come out just in time! Now if Santa would show up…
I have switched browsers to Google Chrome so I can use the updated web clipper. And I’m really loving Chrome! What is going to be amazing about the new Evernote web clipper on Chrome is that when you clip notes on a web page you will be able to pull up all the notes you’ve ever clipped from that site. So if you have sites you return to often and clip information from often – it is a great tool. You’ll basically have a “best of” section of notes for that site. This is helpful for me for sites like The Container Store or Staples…or Prada or Jimmy Choo…I digress.
I love the Publisher’s Notebook section of the Trunk. If you enjoy magazines you will love this feature. It is basically a magazine on Evernote that you can add your own notes to. Check out the offerings and if there is something there that strikes your interest it would be worth it to play with. I’m seeing many uses for this section as time goes on. There aren’t so many magazines there at the moment but I’m sure more publishers will jump in soon.
I’ll keep you updated as I try the new tools. Have any of you tried any of the Trunk apps? Let me know how you have done with them and how you use Evernote!
