The data is in and we are all struggling to use our work time as effectively as possible. We are hit with notifications almost constantly, the number of different apps we use keeps growing and we're drowning under a rising data tide. How do we become more productive in the face of this tidal wave of busyness?

Woe is the Chrome user who has an overflowing Bookmark Bar - or worse, that single folder they use to store anything interesting they see online.

Evernote has a bit of a malware problem. For the past few years (starting in early 2014) spammers have been sending fake emails that claim to come from the note-organising service but include links to install malicious software on your computer.

I’ve been a long time user of Evernote. For the last three or four years, I’ve been a paying customer as I need to sync my notes to multiple devices including two computers, a phone and a tablet. But the Windows 10 experience, on a tablet, is poor. Why is that?

Android/iOS/Mac: You have a ton of options for notes apps, including heavyweights like Evernote and OneNote. Zoho Notebook takes the same catch-all approach as Evernote and OneNote, but has a few design ideas of its own.

iOS: One of the biggest complaints about Evernote has been its cluttered interface that tends to make it hard to just pop in and make a quick note. Today, the iPhone version of Evernote is making an attempt to fix that with a refresh of its interface.

Earlier this week, Evernote updated its privacy policy to make machine learning features -- which let some employees read your notes -- mandatory for all users. Now, the company's walking that policy back, but there are still some problems.

Evernote just posted an update to its Privacy Policy that details how the company will make use of some new machine learning tools. In order for those tools to work, Evernote will need to allow a human review of your notes, and that isn't the only reason an employee would look at your notes.

Mac: When Evernote changed up its pricing plans, the appeal of Microsoft's alternative, OneNote, skyrocketed. Unfortunately, the only way to import your notes from Evernote into OneNote was through a Windows-only tool. Now that tool's on the Mac.

You spend a lot of time taking notes in university. You have several excellent options for doing so, and which works best for you depends a lot on your note taking style. It's best to pick software and stick to it so you don't to worry about moving stuff around later. Here's how to make the right choice from the outset.

Earlier this week, Evernote announced that its subscriptions are getting more expensive and free users are now limited to just two devices. For the scores of existing users, that little restriction and that price increase are a big pain. Thankfully, you have other options.

If today's news regarding Evernote's new pricing plans and limitations has you considering Microsoft OneNote, the OneNote Importer tool makes the transition relatively painless for Windows users.

Today, Evernote announced a change to its pricing plan alongside a new limitation for it's free service. Both the Plus and Premium paid tiers get a price bump while the Basic plan now restricts you to just two devices.

Video: Evernote and Google are getting friendlier today. Now, you can add and search for Google Drive files right from Evernote.

Android: Evernote's added a few new tricks for users who are into scanning notes. Now, the app can automatically detect things like business cards and post-it notes. You can also add annotations to pictures you take.

Windows: The latest version of Evernote makes it easier to navigate your notebooks, search your notes easily and organise notebooks and notes by colour.

Evernote and OneNote are two of our favourite tools, but both have changed substantially since we last compared these two apps -- in some ways, not for the best. Here's where these two stand today.

One of the tiny little new features in the most recent update to OS X El Capitan is the ability to natively import Evernote files into Notes. If you've been thinking about jumping ship from Evernote to Apple's surprisingly robust little Mac app, it's super easy to do now.

Tags can be useful for organisation but they can also get in the way of your notes. Maybe we should ditch using tags in Evernote altogether.
