Hi everyone, this is Anthony Montalbano with the internetriot.com. And today so, the hear for you is evernote.com. It does exactly what it says right infront of you. It helps you remember everything from your cell phone or any computer wherever you're at on the web, you can remember everything. You can use text notes, you can do pictures, you can do audio, you can do pretty access all kinds of things. Whenever you need to remember something, you can do it with any digital device as long as you're sync top with you having that account. And you can search it and come back whenever you want.

So, what is really cool about Evernote is besides the application you can install on your computer or the application on your iPhone or your blackberry or anything like , you can break different things. So, say you're in a store and you write down a whole much of things and you can take your cellphone, take a picture of it, send to Evernote account. And it can actually interpret the handwriting and it uses OCR, optical character recognition. It could actually search your handwriting. It converts that image into text for you.

So, this is a great way to maybe take pictures of words that you see written down at somewhere and then had Evernote translate it for you. So, for instance, one thing I love to do is when I go to a store and I see a product that I really, really want, I don't necessarily buy it immediately. I like to take a picture of that item. And there are times that I break down the ISPN or if it's a book or something like that. But I take down the track number but I don't know if I write down. I just take a picture of it with my cell phone, save it for later. And then I just Google it or Froogle it online. And see if I can have their price, if not I'd go back.

Well, what you can do now with Evernote is take a picture and send to your Evernote account. And then you will get that image with whatever words, whatever the ISPN. As in you just copy and paste it, you don't have to write it or up then. It will translate that image into text for you. So, that's something cool. You can do with Evernote and like I said once again it is a tool to help you remember anything wherever you're at with your cell phone, with the computer, with images and audio and text notes or whatever. That's it. That's Evernote. That's if you want to buy with internetriot.com and I'll see you guys again.
