Great for travel

This past weekend, I went to northern California’s wine country. On a previous trip, we stopped at an amazing winery, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to return and buy a bottle (or two…or three). When we got to the winery, I realized that I couldn’t remember which wine I had enjoyed. Luckily, I’d taken a snapshot in Evernote of the wine bottle. So, I took out my iPhone, opened up Evernote, and set the filter to “1 mile.” Voila, all the notes I’d taken at the winery popped up, including that fantastic zinfandel.

Longitude + Latitude = City

In the note details screen, Evernote for iPhone takes the geo-location data (longitute and latitude) and converts it into the city name, which is a lot more useful –unless you’re a pirate.
