CHECK THIS OUT! Evernote meets Moleskine
Notes app Evernote has teamed up with cult notebook brand Moleskine to create something very special, says freelance UX designer Anna Dahlström.
In my bag there’s always a Moleskine notebook. I use them for my to-do lists and for scribbling and sketching down ideas.
Although I have a range of drawing apps on my iPad there’s something special about using pen and paper. As a result I often end up scanning or taking pictures of some of my sketches so it's easier to share them.
The new collaboration between Moleskine and popular notetaking app Evernote aims to provide an easier way to sync your sketches and notes from your Moleskine and get them uploaded to Evernote, making them available on all your devices.
Physical book
The Evernote Smart Notebook is a physical book that comes with lined pages to make straight image capture with the Evernote app easier, as well as stickers to help tag and organise your notes.
Using the Evernote Page Camera, your notes automatically become digital and the stickers help make your notes searchable.
Bridging the gap
It’s a perfect and sweet example of acknowledging and bridging the gap between the digital and physical world. Evernote's collaboration with Moleskine solves the problem that we still prefer to do certain things on paper but would like to access them from anywhere.
And as the cherry on the cake, each notebook comes with a three-month premium subscription to Evernote so there’s even more reason to sketch away.
