Smartphone Apps that Save Time: Note-Taking

I bet you are always looking for ways to get more done in your day. Something that helps me? Wait time. Think about it. You stand in line at the grocery store. You sit down and wait on your doctor to call you back. You are waiting for your coffee order. Sometimes those wait times can last between 2-10 minutes. Imagine what you can do in that amount of time.

This is the beginning of a series of apps you can install on your smartphone or your tablet to take advantage of your wait time.

Evernote

If you need a note-taking tool to capture thoughts, to-do items and pictures, get Evernote.  You can copy web links, clip articles, capture pictures, write notes, or speak tasks into this application, and it will create searchable notes for you. These notes can be tagged and sorted into categories so that you can easily find them later. It also automatically syncs to the Internet, which means you can access your notes anywhere you have web access—including from your smartphone.
