Evernote is a software application that allows users to capture information of various types, including text notes, mobile phone snapshots, printed and handwritten text within images, web clips, and digital link. All data added to Evernote are run through a series of recognizers that make any text within the various note formats searchable. For capturing content beyond direct text and digital ink input, Evernote uses a system of Clippers and supports drag-and-drop, cut, copy, and paste, and import/auto-import capabilities.

Evernote’s growth is not as rapid as fire in jungle by any means, but it is consistent. You might know Evernote from its iPhone app, which won a Crunchie award and has been downloaded around one million times on its own. But the company also has Windows, and Mac clients, as well as a Web browser version.
