In response to Joan’s blog on Evernote, a web service and software program that allows users to collect notes and information and have it stored to retrieve when needed. I can see this web 2.0 applications, evernote, as a resourceful tool for learners and educators as they progress through the content of the class regardless of the academic discipline.

I like the easy user-friendly application of evernote, as users can click and clip to capture images, save text, photos, copy business cards when at a conference, and anything viewed on the Internet. As learners and educators can use these images to edit, delete, print or email. Like flickr.com one can create research tags to associate words and ideas to your image and this will help one organize one’s computer files and keep track of what one needs to remember about that specific image.


I agree with Joan on how evernote can organize images and help reduce stress, for teachers and learners alike, by organizing information through the pictures for future reference. I believe evernote can help students keep track research, homework, notes, tests, quizzes, and other school-related articles. I can see how evernote can allow students to archive their pictures of their important papers and projects. As a user-friendly web 2.0 application, evernote allows learners just click and then upload the pictures to organize the stored information.


I agree with web 2.0 applications like evernote that can make the chaotic, stressful lives of teachers and students easier to manage. Like a cyber sticky note, take a snapshot of an article you really want to read, save the image with evernote and for when you have time to read.


I can see how Evernote can become one’s new memory database, a cyber rolodex that allows for the easy accessibility of a notepad.
