The note-taking and information-shepherding application Evernote is a ProfHacker favorite. Although I tend to use other apps for making quick notes on my phone (for example, Catch, Power Note, and Springpad), I do use Evernote for taking longer notes---during a meeting, for example---on my iPad or laptop. It’s helpful to be able to access those notes no matter where I am, which is why I have Evernote on my Android phone, right alongside those other note-taking apps.
While Jason highlighted Evernote’s dramatic redesign for the iPhone in March, we never mentioned Evernote’s similarly (though different) dramatic redesign for Android in April. As the Evernote developers explain in an overview of the changes, the most significant new feature of the Android app is sharing. It is now possible to share an entire notebook with another Evernote user (though only paid, Premium users can edit---rather than simply view---shared notebooks). I’ve never used this capability, but I can imagine it coming in handy when working on collaborative projects. More useful to me as an individual user is the other form of sharing built into the app: the ability to share individual notes on Facebook, Twitter, or even Google+. (In fact, you can share a note with nearly any other app on your phone.)
There are a host of other changes in the Evernote update (better GPS and geolocation integration, for example), but I think it’s the sharing that is most noteworthy. Have you had a chance to use the Android Evernote app? Has sharing turned out to be helpful? Are there other new features that you’ve come to rely on as a teacher, student, researcher, librarian, or administrator?
