If you thought there were enough solutions for jotting down your notes digitally before today, Evernote implores you to think again. Today they’ve shown off the Jot Script – a new edition of the Adonit stylus in an “Evernote Edition” made specifically to tie in with the cloud capture service for notes and the app […]
Brother has unveiled a new compact scanner, the ImageCenter ADS-1500w, a wireless device it calls its flagship in what will be a new series of products aimed at the home and small business markets. With the svelte device comes the ability to upload scanned documents and photographs to a variety of cloud storage and social […]
In May, Evernote began rolling out two-step verification to its Premium users, with a promise that as the system was implemented, it would eventually be made available for standard users as well. Fast forward a couple months, and such a time has come, with the company announcing that all of its users are now covered […]
What the hell is Evernote doing selling backpacks and socks? That’s a question asked by many yesterday, when Evernote revealed a plan to expand its business well beyond productivity software by opening up Evernote Market. The Market, revealed at the third annual Evernote conference in San Francisco, debuted selling a selection of high-end bags from Côte&Ciel, notebooks from Moleskine, a scanner from Fujitsu, a stylus from Adonit, plus a smattering of T-shirts, posters and the aforementioned socks. The stylus packs the smallest tip on the market and is designed to work with note-taking apps like Penultimate. And the scanner integrates tightly with Evernote software, too — it can scan a pile of varied documents (business cards, receipts, invoices, etc.), then sort and deposit the results an appropriate notebook automagically.
At first blush, selling physical goods seems odd for such a company. To hear CEO Phil Libin tell it, however, the move into retail is a logical one, should you be willing to make a bit of a cognitive leap. The key to this strategy was revealed during his day two keynote, when Libin said that his company is in the business of AI. However, those letters stand for augmented, not artificial intelligence.
Evernote has announced Skitch 3 for iOS 7 users. The application is designed to provide mobile annotation capability in a package that’s fast and easy-to-use. The application will work on the iPhone and the iPad and features a new Quick Shot mode. The Quick Shot mode makes it very fast to add annotations to photographs […]
Skitch made a couple of big announcements today, one of which is a spanking-new logo. Gone is that pink heart we know and love, and in its place are the feathers of an arrow that signify stabilized flight and direction. As if to emphasize that point, the company also unveiled a version 3 update for its iOS app that promises even faster image capture and annotation than before. As soon as you launch it, you’ll be presented with Quick Shot mode, which should let you snap a photo, annotate it with an arrow and send it off to the cloud in seconds. You may add further captions to an image, share Skitched pics to all attendees in a calendar meeting, sync them via AirDrop or simply save them to Evernote. It’s also updated the overall interface with new tools and style bars for better use of real estate and to match the stylings of iOS 7. It looks like the new logo hasn’t rolled out to the App Store just yet, but the updated app certainly has. So go on and hit the appropriate link in the source to have a peek at the all-new Skitch.

Evernote has already ventured beyond apps with a Smart Notebook made by Moleskine, but the company’s now kicked off a new initiative that’ll see its logo appear on some decidedly more surprising products. As the company indicated previously, that includes hardware developed by a partner — an Evernote-branded Fujitisu scanner and a stylus from Adonit, for starters — but also a number of products that have little direct link to Evernote’s core services. Those include a wallet, backpacks, a laptop case and, yes, socks — all of which can be purchased through the Evernote’s online store, which is said to also be coming to its various apps.
Another new partnership also announced today will see 3M produce a new line of Post-It notes that are designed to be captured with a smartphone’s camera, not unlike the aforementioned Moleskine notebook; in this case, Evernote apps will organize Post-Its based on their color. You can browse all the current offerings available in the Evernote Market at the source link below, and count on seeing plenty more in the future. Speaking at the company’s conference in San Francisco today, Evernote CEO Phil Libin spelled it out: “we’re a fashion brand now.”

It appears to be a big week for Evernote as they release a collection of co-designed hardware, large and small, for a renewed push of their online physical products marketplace. They’ve got backpacks and Moleskins and even a pair of socks that you’ll be encouraged to takes notes in. The headliner here, though, appears to […]
According to Evernote CEO Phil Libin, “paperless as a concept is stupid.” Speaking with WSJ this week on their new collaboration with 3M’s Post-It notes, Libin continued, “the goal is to get rid of stupid uses of paper.” Users will be able to purchase packs of Evernote-branded Post-It notes soon, each of them working with […]
It’s not just iOS and BlackBerry 10 users getting new Evernote apps this week; the company has now also released an updated version of its Mac app with one fairly big new feature. An all-new Presentation Mode will now let you share your notes with others and possibly eliminate the need to jump into Keynote or PowerPoint. Clicking the Presentation Mode button will naturally switch things to a full-screen mode, and give you the ability to move ahead in your presentation by tapping the spacebar; another new feature will let you use your mouse or trackpad as a laser pointer of sorts, with your cursor movement displayed as a glowing blue light. The only catch is that you’ll need to be a Premium Evernote user to take advantage of the feature, although Evernote is offering a 30-day free trial in the hope that you’ll pay up. There’s no word yet on the feature making it to other platforms just yet, but Evernote does say that it’s “available first” for Mac, so we’d presume others can expect it eventually.
