These are interesting technology for the hard of hearing. They'd be cool if they worked for *life*.

So I clicked on Evernote's Trunk and got really excited for a hot second...and now not so much.

Wheat...chaff...all kinda looks the same to me from here, apart from Skitch (God, I love that program--I need it for Windows...). I thought that Kustom Note was a good thing, but it turned out to be topheavy, and then I couldn't open a note without an internet connection, so major loss.

In the end, I decide to make a notebook called Templates and just use bold and horizontal rules, and I still have a tidy record of my morning doctor's appointment. And I can see adding a couple more there.

Do any of you Evernote users have Trunk recs?

Or any other automation hookups? LeN, I know you like IFTTT--I'm now wondering about hooking that with some Evernote functionality to file some stuff more easily.

It was nice when I asked the doctor precisely what areas he'd injected and he told me he'd make a copy of the sheet he was using for his records, and I could just snap a picture with my tablet and drop it into into a note and know it would be OCRed as I walked out of the building....

I might not have a jetpack, but shit is still pretty cool...

I don't think I have other automation hookups besides IFTTT. I use gmail filters to send receipts to evernote automatically.

there are apps on the iphone and ipad that save to evernote - so I like that.

hmm. also: wappwolf will automate your dropbox (select a folder in dropbox and anything you drop in there will automatically upload to evernote).

technically then, you could use the chrome extension [link] for gmail (and has an iphone app) to drop email attachments in the designated folder and have wappwolf process them.

which is what I do.

I share from Android apps to Evernote, so I'm good there.

I hadn't even thought about IFTT being integrated with Evernote originally--I was just thinking of sending stuff to the Evernote email address. But I'm looking at it now to see what channels could be useful--it seems to have generic email, so that's good--Gmail isn't my primary.

Google calendar and dropbox might also have potential. I might be doing some experimentation in my free time tomorrow.

I was looking at tools yesterday that log into your electronic billing accounts and retrieve PDF bills, but I don't feel confident about the security--no overt reason, but I'm coming over a bit Liese, you know?

I don't really like having a lot of apps have access to my email. I would rather put in filters to automatically forward or use a special email addy.

I don't really have a way to do server side email forwarding. I do have a couple clients always open, but it's not the most reliable. At this point, I'd magine IFTTT wouldn't fun off with my shit, but they could sure get hacked--they can store credentials encrypted, but they need to decrypt to actually log into your email...

I just found something new with evernote.

on a mac, use the program Hazel (which is something I use anyway to automate some file actions) and I designate a folder in Documents. Anytime I drop something into that folder, that file gets uploaded to Evernote.

OK, question--when synching my iphone, it shows how much space I'm using for audio, video, photos, apps...and "other". Other is suddenly taking up over 2 gigs--anyone know what other might be? I can't figure it out.

it can be a lot of things, but typically, if you have files in other apps, that's other. so I have podcasts in the downcast app, and I think those show up in other.

On my iPhone, I keep getting logged out of B.org. I have had to log in about 15 times in the past 2 days? Any thoughts?

Also, is it the google transit that does not work in the new OS? I use the maps feature to find buses all the time, so I don't want to upgrade unless that works
