    Step by Step for securing evernote on a MAC using an encrypted disk.

    • Jonathan

      Google… lets not be lazy people… you can do foot work on your own… search Google, or better yet, search the Evernote forums because this is discussed in detail.

    I found it interesting the way user ideas were dismissed in this episode.

    Examples:

    The suggestion of a cloud tag brought the comments that it wasn’t thought of very highly and it wouldn’t be valuable since it was our own “stuff.” I always appreciate it when I’m told I don’t really need what I know would be helpful for my situation.

    The suggestion of pin codes brought the comment, “people keep asking for specific pin codes – seems crazy to me.” Making such a judgment of a (growing) percentage of your user base on a podcast that represents your product and your company doesn’t seem all that sensible.

    We’re told via the forum that everyone’s suggestions are “valued.” After listening to this podcast, I now have to wonder.

      Thin skin much? Amazes me how people can’t differentiate from humor and insult… the way I see it from the podcasts is it is low key… bringing the Evernote owners and employees down to earth as normal people, like having a conversation with your buddies, but if you get offended at the drop of a hat, I am surprised you ever hungout with a group of friends away from the office.

      Picture them hanging out in a pub, just shooting the breeze and learn to take a joke and let them have an opinion… they are not robots and will not always be analytical or PC (politically correct) about everything, so chill out, dang!

    I have a question for a future podcast -

    Evernote has been billed as a platform to store essentially everything. Many users claim that they use it to store and archive all of their documents and files. What, if anything, do you continue to store on your local machine in the traditional “documents” folder?

    question:

    You spoke of templates being implemented.
    Will there be one for diarists?
    This would require some dynamic elements – such as date and time stamps which would insert the date and time at the time the template was used.
    Also – dynamic stamping for a ‘day of year’ calendar, which a lot of diarists like to use.
    Perhaps even dynamic labeling in the same fashion.
    A lot of diarists like to compare a day they are reading with previous years entries/same date or perhaps same day of year, etc…

    It seems odd that evernote does not have any tools to offer diarists at all – as you would think it would be the perfect software for such a task. But really it is quite a handful to use for that purpose as it lacks such basic capabilities as those asked about above.

    question:

    I often find I take the same ‘type’ of note over and over again.
    Often I add commentary to something clipped.

    I find that I am selecting a particular font (including size, color and other attributes) again and again to make comments in my notes so they stand out in a uniform way to me.

    Couldn’t we have some ‘saved’ setting buttons to put such selections in – possibly in the unused space of the bar where font attributes are selected?
    It would save SO much hassle of constantly re-selecting the same thing again and again and again, day after day, time after time.

    • Jonathan

      This would probably be a good use case for Templates rather than saved settings.
