These past few months, I’ve been using a cool resource called Evernote. It’s one of those grass-catcher programs that lets you throw everything into the hat… then forget about it ’til you search for it later. (Alas, I’m mixing my metaphors.) There are iPhone apps, and even apps for Windows Mobile (it’s about time!). You can use a website to access your stuff, or run a program like an application on your laptop. You can forward an email into your own account of Evernote — and wait, there’s more. Any time you forward a PDF, Evernote ‘reads’ it and recognizes the characters on the entire PDF! … which means, it now becomes incredibly accessible to you for whole-text “needle-in-a-haystack” searches. For more info on Evernote, or to use the free version, check out…
Now the base level of Evernote is free. That’s cool. But there are some advanced features (including the PDF scanning capability) that are called “Premium” features and they set you back something like $25 a year. (Still a deal!) But if you want, they’ve given me 10 free invitations (I know — Christmas; what can I say) so I can ‘invite’ 10 people to free premium months. So here’s the way we’ll do this. In the link below (immediately under this item), find this item on Brigada and leave an *anonymous* message saying you’d like the free premium trial run. When you leave the anonymous message, you’ll have to provide your email address to the system (which I will see) but none of it will show up on the ‘public’ website (that the world sees). I’ll pick the first 10 email addresses and those folks get a free ride. So — if you’re interested, better hurry. All it takes is 10 takers and my invitations are gone. This deal expires January 11th.

I love the free version of Evernote. I’d love to get my hands on one of your invites… if it’s still available.

I would love to have a copy of the premium invite, if you still have some available.
Thanks!

Have they figured out a way to give off-line access to the Windows Mobile client yet? I was all excited about Evernote a few years back until I realized I didn’t have access on the one platform that was always with me unless I was willing to deal with the wait…
(Incidentally, it’s kind of weird having the captcha below the submit button on this comment form — I find myself scrolling down until I have the submit button but not far enough to see the captcha…)

Would love the free premium trial run but it looks like you already have more requests than give-aways.

I’ve been using the free version. I’d love to try the premium. Might help me with Missions Catalyst, no?

This was a great response, indicative of a product with great potential. And by the way, in case you were wondering, there’s no kickback to the referrer here. In other words, Evernote doesn’t give me any free months or any cash or anything else. Just the satisfaction of knowing that the product is helping me, and I hope it helps you.
If you were one of the first 10 comments above, you’ve just been welcomed. Sorry for those further down the line! Please forgive. But the truth is, Premium doesn’t cost that much anyway. Give it a whirl. I think you’ll like it.
