On the left, click

“Notebooks”



Click “New Notebook”


Give your notebook a name


Then click “Ok”


You can make as many

notebooks as you can


You can also make as

many NOTES


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”

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
