workers in a group notebook.

and enhanced, producing crystal
clear digital documents.

Why is Evernote2
Take notes in various format
No matter it’s a video, a audio, a
photo or a webpage, you can all save
it to Evernote with a simple click.

4. Save the
webpage instantly
Journalists deal with massive
information everyday.
If you read a breaking news online or
just find information you are
interested in, Evernote allows you to
save the webpage immediately
without worrying about finding it later.
Access the
webpage offline
Premium account users can access
the webpages downloaded earlier
offline.
Online/mobile journalists sometimes
work in difficult conditions (eg.
limited internet access), this function
largely improved journalists work
efficiencies under such
circumstances.

7. “The more you use Evernote, the more you
rely on it.” It can be a double-edged sword.
Evernote is an excellent tool for managing notes, documents
or even the information library. It helps journalists to be more
efficient and more organized.
However, people have the tendency to store things, but leave
things there without reviewing. One thing for users to keep in
mind is that do not let the convenience provided by Evernote
become an excuse for just throwing things into the folders
without reviewing them again.

The functions of a free account provided
by Evernote is fairly limited.
The functions associated with free accounts provided by
Evernote is fairly limited. Thus, for online/mobile journalists,
a paid premium account would be more suitable.
It allows extra functions such as: offline access to the
history of notes, scanning and digitizing business cards,
annotating PDFs and searching text in PDFs.
