Shoeboxed and Evernote
Summary
Use Evernote to save your ideas, things you see, and things you like. Then find them all on any computer or device you use. For free.
Overview
You see that pile of business cards in front of you (I know they’re there)? What about that wallet full of receipts weighing down your pocket? Imagine all of those pieces of paper digitized, searchable, and available in Evernote without you ever touching a scanner. Magic? Maybe a little.
Great together
There are tons of great ways to use the two services together. Here are a few ideas:
- Dreading tax season? Use Shoeboxed to scan your receipts, then organize them in Evernote. If you’re an Evernote Premium user, you can even keep your tax software’s export files in Evernote, so that you can access them at any time.
- Just got back from a long business trip? Instead of having your business cards in one place, receipts in another, and meeting notes somewhere else, now everything can be saved and organized in Evernote. All searchable and available whenever you need.
- Taking a home inventory? Send all your purchase receipts to Shoeboxed and import them into Evernote. Take snapshots of the things you own using your digital camera and add those to Evernote. Finally, take notes on the condition of your belongings directly in Evernote. Voila, a perfectly organized inventory for your homeowner’s or renter’s insurance.
Don’t forget, as with anything in Evernote, all of your scanned receipts and business cards are accessible and searchable on Windows, Mac, Web, iPhone, Windows Mobile and lots of other devices.
