Evernote Icon - what the heck is it? Anyone actually like version 3 ?

<< < (3/9) > >>

Dormouse:
I do use the handwriting recognition; especially text with photos. Kids use it when they copy other people's notes. Would be sensible for them to scan their own notes and use it to search them too.

I think the EN 2.2 vs EN 3 issue is overdone. It is particularly disappointing that they shifted the product to something less powerful and useful for many of us - but that doesn't mean that EN has no use at all; I suspect that a lot of the grief is the discovery that we have been cut off from the path into the future that we felt we had been led to expect. The change has caused me to reduce my usage of both, but that might just be while I consider what sort of workflow I will move to. I use OneNote, but don't see it as competing with either EN; and I suspect I will use EN3 differently to EN2.2 (and I won't use 2.2 for anything important long term because it is basically dead). I also bought a license to UR in the most recent BitsDuJour reduction. I will see how it goes, but it is not beyond possibility that I'll use all 4.

I like and use EN3... I use it instead of google notepad because it's better done than that app.  I don't like it as well as a desktop app, but for the convenience of having my notes everywhere, it's pretty cool.

I've been an Evernote 2 user for a long time and I love it ( portable version ), I could not live without it in my daily life along with TodoList. Been waiting for forever for the webclipper to work with FireFox 3, so glad they finally updated it. I've been testing with the closed beta for a while now, and have not been impressed. Like others here I think it feels pretty clunky compared to 2, and every version I have tested with crashes when importing 2.2 databases. I get very little response from the 3.0 beta forum on problems and questions. I have yet to get an answer on why notes imported from 2.2 into 3.0 loose all their rich text formatting, I've bumped the thread a few times and never gotten an answer. The 3.0 product seems to be moving in a completely different direction from what I like about 2.2 and what I use it for.. Oh well, at least I have my web clipper back  :D

Getting way off topic - the elephant icon reminds me of my favorite old floppy disc marketing from way back when:

Evernote 3.0.0.681 released today. Some GUI changes, some bugfixes, especially useful is that you can now reorder columns. Still not perfect, but I'm using it now on a regular basis instead of version 2.2 and I can only recommend it.
