Evernote is a service that helps you keep track of notes and information. There's a web app, and clients for multiple desktop and mobile platforms. The tag line of the service, which currently has more than 11 million users, is "remember everything".
Evernote allows you to capture notes and information (e.g. clip web pages, photos, text notes, documents and more) and then access then from anywhere (web, PC, mobile). A powerful search function allows you to quickly retrieve information, including support for recognising text (printed and hand written) in uploaded documents and images. More information is available on the Evernote website.
The latest update to the Windows Phone is relatively minor, but it's a good excuse to highlight a great Windows Phone app. The most recent update follows in the footsteps of bigger updates in March this year and December of last year.
