How to Use Evernote Notebooks to Organize Tasks, Projects and References

[sac58999]

I loved learning about Evernote until this video.

It's a disservice to the creator in that it seems like it was just hacked on to the previous material...it's almost enough to make me delete Evernote from my Android & Mac (not to mention my PC at work--a completely different device!).

Note to self (not to be entered into Evernote): Don't try to append previous material; start a new thread of how to remain productive and innovative without resorting to the latest gadget; get back to Ben Frank..

I see a difference between onenote and evernote, but still not sure about the integrations, think about it again. but i do see the platform advandage of evernote.

[hjhenski]

Can you explain difference of onenote and evernote will evolution occur or are you expecting a complete migration of sorts. evernote looks a lot like outlook any comments on this or other potential integrations.? I just learned to use onenote.

@hjhenski I've never really used OneNote. I prefer Evernote because I can use it on the Web, on my phone and on my desktop.

Cameron, your videos on Evernote & GTD have been extremely helpful for me. Thanks for sharing the insight! Keep up the great posts.

When cat's gone wild! One Cat point for that! Givem a break..he's looking for his big break into movies!

This Evernote application is like so many others. You can spend all day doing your notes and find yourself getting nothing done, because you've spent so much time organizing your notes and "things to do".

5 lights out of 10!

Hey... I'm Confused. I looked at your prior tutorials and you had TWO folders, now it appears you are no longer using this system? OR is it in conjunction with that system? Also... as a side question, in your tool bar you had the icon of a duck. Which program uses a duck? (I know it isn't an evernote question). I am more likely to see your answer if you write me back at my email address buzzcutmale AT gmail dot com. Thanks for your response. I really like your series, it has helped.

@basboyblair I was thinking the exact same thing. I think before it was a Tag based system. I personally think that's better for just notes. The notebook approach seems like an additional management nightmare for just notes. It seems somewhere along the way the GTD approach was adopted which compartmentalized things a bit more to help organize the brain and help complete tasks/projects. Maybe the same could be accomplished with a Tags & Saved Searches combo. Still good though.

@basboyblair - although it does have a note at the beginning of the video too that reads "FYI, i've changed how I organize evernote..." hehe
