Evernote just got better...
Evernote is one of my most used tools. It is billed as a way to remember everything. Just dump notes, pics, web site clips, etc into Evernote and it will be indexed and available by search any time later on any PC you have set up with Evernote or from their web site. It even does a pretty good job of indexing text it recognizes in images. If you haven't already, I really encourage you to check it out.
One of Evernote's strengths is the number of ways you can input stuff into Evernote. You can simply type in a new note, clip stuff from the web or e-mail your stuff into your Evernote account. I use the "e-mail in" feature extensively, sending in notes and pics from my cell phone. The downside has always been that stuff you e-mail in goes into a default notebook and is not tagged. Of course you can always change the notebook later and add tags, but that's another step.
Until now....
Evernote now lets you send in a note to your account and specify the destination notebook and assign tags from the subject line. In the subject line of your e-mail message to your Evernote account, specify the title of the note. Then after that you can specify a notebook by typing "@<notebook name>" and tags with "#<tag name>". \
So you have a shiny new recipe someone sent you, you could forward the message with the recipe to your Evernote address, with the subject line as follows:
Subject: Chicken Marsala @Recipes #chicken #Italian
This would dump the recipe into the Recipes notebook with the note title of Chicken Marsala and it would be tagged with "chicken" and "Italian".
A couple of cautions. This only works for notebooks and tags that already exist in your account. You cannot use it to create a new notebook or tag via e-mail.
Still, its a great increase in functionality for an already great tool.
