Reinventing the way we remember

Most types of information can be added to Evernote in a few seconds, from any computer or smartphone. You can type in a note, handwrite a note on a touchscreen, take a photo with your phone's camera, record an audio conversation, put in a Web address, save all or part of a webpage, or forward an e-mail to Evernote. The software takes it from there, sucking the data into Evernote's servers, which are backed up religiously, as well as storing it on your computer. The system also labels the incoming data with any information that could come in handy, including when it was added and where you were when you added it. Thanks to the software developed by Pachikov's team, any visible text in a photo becomes searchable.
