Unfortunately, this is a fine way to miss out on perhaps the most powerful way to use Evernote: the tagging system. One notebook for reminiscing about coffee. When I first started using Evernote, I used it the way I’ve always used physical notebooks: a note goes in a notebook. Here’s what I learned: The key: Tags, not notebooks.

In January of this year, I saved my first note in a desperate attempt to begin getting my parking tickets in order (I live in Los Angeles). I had Evernote installed for two years without ever saving a single note.

Medium has become my go-to resource for war stories from the startup community. Discovering that information gets easier and easier every single day. I believe that the best insights are made possible when they’re built from the best knowledge available.

Evernote is a powerful tool for writing notes, collecting information and referencing materials but with so much functionality available it can be daunting to figure out your own personal workflow for such a tool.
