Mmm.. looks like these vids could be good, however it's now early 2012 and I'm using a Windows version, which doesn't look the same as what's being used here. In fact it took me awhile to find the search box, because it is NOT in the corner like shown here, it's tucked away in the middle column...

@bigglyguy I'm using the Mac version.

[TheExtraordinaryVids]

@bigglyguy Makes sense, if it doesn't work for you don't use.

I am late to finding this, but fantastic set of videos. I am sharing with my fellow Masters students!

[TheExtraordinaryVids]

@duffybates Thanks! Glad you are sharing with other students. I think students need all the help they can get staying organized. I know I had a tough time in school!

Hi Cameron,

Great video - I've been using Evernote more and more, and with the skills for your tutorials I am ready to take it to the next level :)

Can you please share what program/platform you use to create your great videos?

You have picture in picture, you can zoom, you can insert text like 'projects' when you mention that in your video. I will be really grateful, because I am new to creating video.

Thanks in advance and great New Year

I just spent an important hour watching your Evernote Series here on YouTube. I have looked at Evernote several times over the years and have even downloaded the software at least twice, but never put it into use.

NOW, all of that will change after watching your series. I so wish I'd have seen your work years ago, even though it is less than a year old.

I now get it. I now also regret not starting with Evernote those many years ago.

Thanks your very much, Cameron,

Ted

Thank you very much for your brief introduction of Evernote. This is my first time using it and i think you are explaining the general features quite clearly.

Thanks for the infomation - it is helpful and it is informative. BUT I continue to be stunned by people who speak badly, present poorly and yet the world seems to think this is okay. Where was your script, and where, especially, was your practice?

@TheExtraordinaryVids Well 2 weeks on and my Evernote is just sitting on my PC and phone, not being used. My to-do list and calendar ('Jorte') yes, I have some software for capturing and downloading websites and a mindmap program for other stuff. I'm afraid even after trying it for awhile I still find Evernote a solution in desperate search of a problem. Sorry...

I just got Evernote today. I've used it before, but I sort of found it difficult at first to use it, but now I'm sorta getting the hang of it.

Q: What's the difference between a 'Local Notebook' and a 'Synchronized Notebook'?

Thanks very much!
