EVERNOTE

Lately I have really been enjoying Evernote. It is a free service that lets you "pin" different ideas, audio notes, videos, web pages, pictures, and just about anything really to your account which can then be accessed at any time by many different devices like your home computer, your smart phone, your iPad, etc. All of your ideas are compiled into one easy to navigate easy to edit and easy to access place. It's genius!

My generation is just getting the hang of it all and new and improved technologies are popping up every week. Are we going to be able to harness all of this information and accessibility or will it drive us mad? I guess only time will tell...
