At conferences these days,the sharing of favourite apps is becoming a topic of conversation.Last week at a SLAV Conference that Annette attended, educators were singing the praises of Evernote, a note taking application. Its main advantage over other note taking systems is that it provides a searchable catalogue of all your notes which are synchronised across a variety of devices.This gives you access to your notes no matter where you are or what device you are using.It also allows you to add voice recordings,handwritten notes,photos and screen clips from web pages.Yes it can keep track of everything!

Evernote can be an excellent research tool for students,enabling them to capture,organise and maintain multiple sources of information from any device.
As someone who is horrible with organisation, I find myself using Evernote more and more to keep myself up to date, regardless where I am. It is especially handy because you can have it on your smartphone and all your computers, being able to access the cloud of information (and add to/edit it) wherever you are.
