Under each notebook that you made


But aside from just simple notes


You can also put other kinds of notes in

Evernote


Let me show you what I mean


When you click the drop down menu beside “New

Note”


You will see different kinds of notes


Let’s see how they work


If you click “New Ink Note”



A yellow pad on the right will open



You can use the tools above the pad



To write anything on it



Next is the “Audio Note”



Click the “Record” button to start your

recording



Then click “Save” once finished



There goes your saved recording



Next is the “Web cam Note”



The camera will then get ready to capture a

picture



Click “Take Snapshot”



Then save to Evernote



There goes the “Webcam Note”



And finally the “Screenshot”



Once you click it, you will see a grid



You can click and drag the grid



to the portion of the screen you want to capture





This screen will pop up


This will allow you to make annotations if

needed


Using these tools on the left side


Then Evernote will automatically save the

file


Everything in your Evernote can also be

shared to others


Here’s how


Go to a specific file that you want to share


Click “Share” drop-down


You will see many options


You can share by via URL


Once you click it, a URL will be generated


You can already share this through instant messages, blogs etc.


If you send by email


Just type the email addresses of the recipients


Then click “Send”


By clicking social


You will be able to easily share your notes


To any of these social media accounts


If you simply click “Share” or “Share Note”


You will be able to share in “Work Chat”


What is Work Chat?


It’s one of Evernote’s features that you can use


To chat with a group of people


To do this, just click “New Chat”



This will pop up


Create a group by typing the email addresses


of your recipients


Then begin typing your message




You can also share notes and here’s how


Click the specific note that you want to share


Click “Share”


The note will be attached at the bottom part


Type the emails of the recipients


You can also set permissions


If you will let colleagues view or edit your note.




You note now has been shared with the group


Now, there are times when you will come

across


with interesting things online and you want to

share them


with other people too


You can easily do that with Evernote clipper


But before you will be able to use it


You have to download it first


Again, open your browser


Then type “Evernote web clipper”


When you click it


You will be directed to this page


Click “Download”


You will see this page, just click “Free”


This will pop up, click “Add”


When it has finished downloading, you will see


this elephant icon


on the top right side of your search engine


Click it then enter your Evernote information


Again, just enter your e-mail address


And your password


Then click “Sign in”


You may now start clipping anything you see

online


Let’s give it a try


Go to any website that you like


If you want to clip this page,


click the web clipper



You will then have options


If you click “Article”


This will automatically detect


the main body of the story


Just click the + sign if you want to expand it


If you click “Simplified article”


You will only see the simplified content


You can just save it to Evernote for later

browsing


The “Full page” will allow you


to save a copy of the entire page


If you don’t want to clip the entire page


Just click “Bookmark”


And lastly, Click “Screenshot”


to take a snapshot of your browser screen


By the way, when clipping a webpage


Everything will be included, even the links on the page.


Click any of those options, then when

finished


Click “Save”


Those are just some of the basic uses of Evernote


You will definitely learn more when you try it

yourself
