I am unable to tick the check boxes using my phone but I can definitely add text to the note. With respect to journaling, I do append notes to my day's agenda as needed. Each day's agenda is moved to the Journal folder as a record of the day. It is also a much better way of tracking what I have done in the past. This is much easier to do than hand writing the lists. I find that I can easily copy and paste items that were not completed from one day's agenda to the next. The list has moved to my Evernote account. This way I can access, download, or email to anybody.Īs for writing down tasks, I made a video of how I've used my Moleskine to track my To Do list. PDFs and other files are increasingly being stored on Evernote as the cloud storage I was hoping Amazon S3 could be.

I can copy and paste or forward to Evernote for later retrieval. It's easier to call a private Google Voice number, which transcribes most of my message correctly.

If driving, I don't use the Evernote voice notes.

If the text cannot be photographed, then write the information down in the Moleskine.

If possible, take a picture of information for storage in Evernote.Here are the rules I follow in how I take notes when I am away from the computer. To do the same thing would be extremely slow on my mobile phone. The Moleskine wins out with long note-taking and drafts of some of my work when I am away from the computer. Voice notes are pretty good but to make them searchable, I need to transcribe them at some point. While the Android app allows me to upload images, text, voice notes, or other files, manual entry of long notes is cumbersome.

Typically, they are in the form of a photo. The majority of my Evernote entries come from my mobile phone. However, entering information is not always quick unless I am at the computer. I love Evernote's endless supply of storage and the ease with which I can find material. There are two things that drive my use of these two note-taking options ease of use and quick access. However, it's not until recently that a harmonious balance came into existence. I'm happy to say that Evernote has survived the ordeal and even has me still paying the monthly subscription. A couple years ago, I wrote about how the Moleskine was killing my Evernote use.
