I review what I have set to back up (which folders on which computers) and I also check to make sure that I can access the files remotely from these services. I use VaultPress for my WordPress blog backup. I use CrashPlan for my cloud backups and this backs up data on all of my home machines. This isn’t directly related to Evernote, but one thing I do each spring is to review my backup plan. But here’s what my reminder list looks like today:ĥ. I use reminders mostly for my freelance work, things like when various rights on contracts revert to me, so my list is pretty short.

If nothing else, it serves as touch-point for things you have coming down the road. I’ll go through a similar exercise with my saved searches, mostly looking to remove saved searches that I’m no longer using.Īctually, I’ve recently added a task to my daily review to glance at my upcoming reminders, but it doesn’t hurt to look at all of the reminders you have set, especially as part of your spring cleaning. I can already see two things that need to be added to my current shortcut list, and I’ll make sure to get those added later today. I also look to see if anything is missing. Here’s what my shortcut list looks like today:ĭuring this season of spring cleaning, I review what is on my shortcut list and remove stuff I’m no longer using. As I work on different projects, I move different items in and out of my shortcut list. My shortcuts, especially, change frequently. I make extensive use of saved searches and shortcuts to speed up tasks in Evernote. I also take this opportunity to refine my daily review, which helps to keep my inbox close to zero each night before I go to bed. Sometimes, something gets into my inbox which I decide I don’t need afterall.

Many of my notes don’t simply because I can find them using Evernote’s search capabilities. This makes it super-easy to search for notes based on their dates, without having to come up with complicated titles that include the date.

Update the “create date” of the note to match the date of the document.Typically, I only have to do a few things with each item I come across:

Much of this is a mindless task that can be done while watching TV (or, say, a Yankees game). So I spent time this spring trying to get it to Inbox Zero. My inbox was overstuffed because of all of the paper I scanned earlier in the year. But I still have an Inbox notebook and that’s where stuff like scanned documents, clippings, and other things go before I’ve had a chance to look at them. I have automated a lot of stuff that goes into Evernote, and for much of the stuff that is automated, it gets filed in the appropriate notebooks. Most of that scanning sat around in my Evernote inbox until recently, when I finally decided that I was going to… 2. I scanned close to 1,300 pages over the course of 2 days. Not too long ago, as we converted our old office back into a living room, we finally cleaned out the old filing cabinet. So I use this time of year to scan in paper that I’ve been ignoring. As I’ve said often before, I may be going paperless, but much of the rest of the world still runs on paper. Paper accumulates, even for those of us going paperless. For many people, of course, spring means spring cleaning, and so I thought I’d share some tips for how I keep my Evernote account clean and tidy this time of year. Don’t get me wrong, I love the summer, but when you have to go through a cold, snowy winter, there’s nothing quite like spring. The weather here has finally started to feel like spring.
