"1. Capture anything.
Chances are, if you can see it or think of it, Evernote can help you remember it. Type a text note. Clip a web page. Snap a photo. Grab a screenshot. Evernote will keep it all safe.
2. Organize it. (Or let us do it.)
Everything you capture is automatically processed, indexed, and made searchable. If you like, you can add tags or organize notes into different notebooks.
3. Find anything fast.
Search for notes by keywords, titles, and tags. Evernote magically makes printed and handwritten text inside your images searchable, too."
