8 Evernote Upgrades You Should Know About
It seems like every other month, Evernote gets additional upgrades. A few are quietly released, while others are highly anticipated by heavy Evernote users. Since I wrote my last article about Evernote's new design and file storage upgrades, the popular notebook has gotten important new features, including Reminders, a highlighter and tighter security for subscribers, among others, and today I'm taking a look at what's made it into the latest versions for Mac OS X and iOS.
3 Ways to Backup Evernote (and Do You Need To?)
Unlike, say, Dropbox, Evernote does not offer a revision history, your content all syncs as-is. This means you could potentially lose any note you accidentally delete from the trash, or any content you accidentally delete from a specific note. If you share a particular notebook other users might make changes you don't like. You get the idea: information goes away sometimes. As with any software, backups are the only real answer for that. Take matters into your own hands: back up the notes, notebooks and other information you store in Evernote.

Without the proper tools (or counselling, probably) a collection like that can quickly grow out of hand. But I'm not here to judge - no, I'm going to enable you. These tools should help, at least until you realise it's time to purge yourself of these meaningly virtual things.

Have You Forgotten About The Web Interfaces For Dropbox & Evernote?
