ReaddleDocs is an iPhone/iPod touch app that allows you to download files from web sites (amongst other things). Frequently you may find you want to download something when you’re browsing the web in Safari. To open the page in ReaddleDocs, you just need to prefix the url with an “r” - i.e. “http://” becomes “rhttp://”.

One of the things that people have frequently asked for in Evernote is for the inclusion of templates. I wrote a post in November 2009 about how ENSCRIPT could be used to automate the creation of notes in Evernote based on a template.

I think I might have accidentally used the undo function before but never realised how to activate it.

So the much anticipated Apple announcement is almost upon us. Many of the rumours doing the rounds not only include the much anticipated Apple Tablet, but also a new version of the iPhone OS.

If there is a new OS there will no doubt be other enhancements and revisions, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to share fifteen enhancements I’d like to see made to the a new iPhone OS.

We’ve recently had some Nokia E71 hand sets in for staff to use and some users are now starting to reset their passwords for the Microsoft Exchange server. This needs to be entered on the phone, but unfortunately it doesn’t just offer up a “your current password isn’t working like to enter a new one?” option. Instead we’re having to make our way through the following twelve step laborious process…

For some time now Fujitsu ScanSnap has been a well publicised way to get your scans into Evernote with a minimum of fuss. I don’t have a Fujitsu scanner, but I did have a desire to get my an all-in-one print/scan/fax unit to fit into some sort of scan to Evernote work flow. Thankfully it was surprisingly easy.
