Evernote


First there was MacJournal, but it got expensive. Then there was DevonThink, got it at a steal in a MacHeist or MacUpdate bundle, but it doesn't sync to the cloud (i.e. no way to store your notes on an internet server).

And then, like manna from heaven, came Evernote. It syncs to the cloud (but, you can control which notes do/don't sync). It has a full desktop client application (which could potentially be used without syncing to the cloud). But, for those items that you do sync to the cloud, you can access them on:

  • the Evernote website
  • your Mac via the desktop app
  • an iPhone
  • an iPad
  • an iPod Touch
Basically, once you download evernote and sign up for a free account, you can create notes from anywhere and get to them from everywhere. It's really a beautiful thing. It's no wonder that it was reported recently that this company is making $800,000 per month- and that's from the people who sign up for the premium services. I've been living happily off the free services for quite a while now.
