Do we have an exciting Food Month treat for you! Evernote has teamed up with the amazingly great Foodzie.com for an exclusive San Francisco tasting event for six lucky Evernoters.

What is Foodzie?

Foodzie is a marketplace devoted to small and artisanal food producers from around the US. They carry an obscene amount of deliciousness (just wait till you see the food photos). Best off all, they help you discover locally-made foods that you never knew existed.

What’s the theme?

As any San Franciscan will tell you, a party ain’t a party without a theme. So, for our tasting, the theme will be Tasty Gifts. Although I’m convinced that anything from this site will make a tasty gift, the folks at Foodzie have hand-selected their absolute favorite products just for us. Personally, I’m a fan of this, this, this, and this.

As a very special bonus, some of the producers will be on hand to tell us about their gourmet vittles.

When? Where?

Date: October 29th
Time: 6pm
Location: San Francisco, CA

Special gift from Yak Pak

In addition to the culinary goodness, all attendees will get a super special gift from the great bag-producing folks at Yak Pak. If you’re not familiar with these guys you need to check them out.

Interested in joining us?

If you would like to join us, please leave a comment below telling us your favorite way to use Evernote. We will randomly select six (6) people from among the commenters. Everyone selected will be allowed to bring one guest to the event. We will contact the selected individual via email, so be sure to use a valid email when leaving your comment. To be considered, comments must be submitted by 12pm PT on Wednesday October 21st. Good luck!

Can’t make it? Don’t worry. There’s more Foodzie excitement to come. Stay tuned.

Evernote is the one place I use for collecting information when I am hosting a client requirements & specification meeting for a Salesforce.com implementation.
Of course I have a monster spreadsheet/workbook for recording fields, triggers, automation rules etc, a handy but heavy lined notepad, my trusty gel ink pens, my memory the size of an elephant, and a few colleagues but you need somewhere to brain dump information so that it doesn’t get lost. And so that you can email it to the client when they forget what they asked for. Where else can I store:
“How Can We Help You?
Admin Request
Device Support
Feature Request
General User Question” badly spelled random notes?
Each client has their own notebook and then I sync this to my BlackBerry and either allow team members to log in as me so that they can see my notes or I email them out.
Evernote is the app I use when I want to remember vital information that I know that I will probably forget.

Evernote has become essential for my meetings. I take notes with it during the meeting, and after the meeting I take pictures of the whiteboard using the iphone app.

I also use it for shopping, while I am out and about, I take pictures of the tags to compare prices between stores and as reminders to buy the item when I can afford it.

I keep copies of user manuals on Evernote, which makes them searchable. I also keep articles and notes for subjects I’m researching.

Tracking random things like receipts and business cards that never had a good place to go. Prosaic stuff. However, I’m trying to convince a friend of mine who owns an vintage glassware store that she could create an online inventory that would be easily searchable. Currently I’m trying to get the eye-fi system set up for this. She said if I could get it down to 5 minutes per entry we should try it.

Very practical but essential…I’m a huge listmaker and I need to have a running list of what to buy the next time I hit grocery or drugstore (because I always forget what I need).

I keep all my random notes to self on Evernote, which makes it useful regardless of whichever computer I might be logging in from!

I use Evernote for clipping and sharing recipes, instructions, interesting articles and schoolwork. If i want to remember it later it goes to Evernote.

My favorite use is the best soundbite of the upcoming vid.”It is my backup brain”
