We’re very excited to try something new here at Evernote: Giveaways! Every Friday in March we will give away Griffin Clarifi iPhone 3G cases to ten (10) randomly chosen lucky entrants.

What’s a Clarifi?

The Griffin Clarifi is a case for the iPhone 3G with a built in lens, which takes incredibly crisp snapshots that are perfect for Evernote. Check out our blog post to get more info.

How to enter

Entering takes one step:

• Send a Twitter message containing: #EvernoteClarifiGiveaway

That’s it. You can include other text in your tweet, but you must have the full hashtag as written above. You only need to tweet once to be entered in all the March giveaways. Don’t forget to follow @evernote and @griffintech.

How will I know if I won?

We will announce weekly winners on Friday March 6th (week 1 winners), March 13th (week 2 winners), March 20th (week 3 winners), and March 27th at 12pm PST on our Facebook fan page, so make sure you’re a fan. While you’re there, check out the Griffin fan page too. The submission period for the Evernote March Giveaway ends at 10am PST on Friday March 27th, 2009.

Winners will be contacted via direct message on Twitter.

Good luck. We’ll see you on Friday.

We’ve all been there: you hand someone a gift, they tear off the wrapping paper, their eyes filled with anticipation, then their excitement turns to a forced smile, “Oh this, this is great, I’ve always wanted one of these, no you really shouldn’t have…do you have the receipt?”

The holidays can be stressful. Picking out the perfect present (or at least something they won’t hate) isn’t easy. We’re coming to the rescue. Evernote can help you give and get better gifts. No one should have to unwrap this:

Gift giving is tough. Evernote can help.

Here’s what you can do:

1. Create a public notebook and call it “Christmas Wish List” or “[your name here]’s Gift List” or “Stop Using Your Imagination, Here’s What I Want List”
2. Add things you like to the notebook
   • Clip things from the web
   • Take pictures while out shopping
   • Scan ads and articles from magazines
   • Type what you want
3. Add comments with sizes and descriptions to make it that much easier
4. Share the URL

Here’s a wish list that I created and sent out to my friends and family:

Share your lists with us

Share your public notebook wish lists in the comments section. Trust us, lots of people out there need good ideas.

Evernote makes a great gift, too

Need an easy gift idea? Give the gift everyone can use, better memory. For only $45, give someone a full year of Evernote Premium.

Evernote has made it into the semi-finals of this year’s Mashable Open Web Awards! Your vote can help advance us into the finals, where, we assume, we’ll take on Johnny.

To vote, complete the form below or go here.

You’ll receive an email from Mashable. Be sure to click the link in the email to confirm your vote. You can vote once a day per email address.

Thanks for your support.

Ever wanted to dictate a quick message into your cell phone and have it magically appear in your Evernote account? I did. As did astute beta tester Drew Vogel, who sent in a brilliantly simple way to get this done by plugging together Jott and Evernote.

Just as I was sitting down to blog about this today, we were scooped by Brad Isacc at Lifehacker: Jott Your Way To Evernote Bliss.

Always feels good to be scooped by Lifehacker!

Big news today, we officially launched our invitation-only beta for the all new Evernote Service. Read all about it in TechCrunch. There are only a limited number of beta invites available right now, but we’ll be releasing more in the coming days and weeks. To get an invitation, please register here.

If you want a better idea of what the new Evernote is all about, watch our screencast below, or watch the YouTube version.
