The Evernote Widget: Notebooks To Go
June 5th, 2008
I use Evernote to collect all of the interesting things I see, wherever I am. For me, a big part of collecting is sharing, so I tend to make a lot of public Evernote notebooks (see: publishing notes). We recently added a new option that makes sharing a lot more flexible: The Evernote Widget.
Here is a widget of funny things I’ve found on the internet:
Think of the Evernote Widget as a portable version of a public notebook. You can create a widget from any public notebook and embed it directly into your blog, Facebook, and MySpace pages. Here is what you can do with it:
- Share notes from any public notebook
- Display thumbnails, titles, and links to the notes
- Search right from the widget, even for text within images
Get your own
Follow these steps to get your widget:
- Go to a public notebook (yours or someone else’s)
- Click the ‘Get Widget’ link beneath the search bar
- Click ‘Add to Facebook’ or click the code to copy it
- Paste the code into your blog or anywhere that takes HTML
Share your memories as they happen
Here’s how to set up the Evernote Widget to instantly share everything from mobile snapshots to web clips to audio notes as soon as you create them:
- Make your default notebook public
- Create a widget of that notebook
- Embed the widget on your blog, Facebook, or MySpace page.
Now, whenever you create and sync new notes, your friends will instantly see them.
More sharing options are on the way. Stay tuned.

I agree with Luhmann. I love Evernote, and this new widget looks like it’s going to come in really handy, but having to fiddle with pop-up blocking settings is a pain. If that was changed I’d use this feature a lot.

Um, I must be blind (or blond) because I’m not seeing a Get the Widget link or button on the toolbar of the web interface or the client. I have pop-up blocking turned off and Firefox hasn’t warned me about pop-ups from here so I’m lost.

I also don’t see the widget link/button. Can someone let us know how we create this widget.
