Once in a while I find a product that actually flat out amazes me. Evernote is one of those products. While at first glance Evernote appers to be yet another offering in the easy note taking software market. This note taking application does a lot more than most of them. First I can transfer my notes from a variety of sources including Outlook Express, Excel, and Microsoft word. This process is simple and easy to figure out. Second the interface is just fun to look at and play with. Finally the amount of options offered to the user is just short of staggering.

For instance, maybe you really dig one of our posts here on the tech brief, and you want to save it so you can refer back to it without having to dig through all of our archives. Simply copy the post select the web clips category on the Evernote interface, click the new note button and paste. Now you have the post saved in its original form to look at time and time again until your hearts content. If you are big time Microsoft Excel user Evernote is great for that as well. Just drag the tables you want to keep over into the evernote box and you now have them in an easy to find and reference location.

Honestly I don’t really have much to complain about with this product other than the fact it costs money. Yet also in all honesty I feel the money will be well spent on and excellent product. If you use other note taking software I can understand but I highly recommend Evernote to everyone, it just rocks.
