Evernote.com announces the latest release for iPhone & iPod users
October 30, 2008
What is Evernote?
Evernote allows you to easily capture information in any environment using whatever device or platform you find most convenient, and makes this information accessible and searchable at any time, from anywhere.
The latest release of Evernote for iPhone, version 1.4, introduces our most (MOST) requested feature: offline notes. We call them Favorites, and here’s how they work.
When viewing a note on the iPhone or iPod Touch, you’ll see a little gray star in left corner of the note title. Once the note is fully loaded, tap the star and that note instantly becomes a favorite. It’s now quickly accessible any time, even offline. To view your favorites, click on “Favorites” in the tab bar along the bottom of the application.
Great for the iPod Touch
This feature is particularly useful for iPod Touch users. Now you will be able to view selected notes even when outside WiFi range.
Planes, trains, and automobiles
With Favorites, you can access selected notes any time you like, no matter where you find yourself. So, whether you’re heading to the corner deli or to New Delhi, the information you need is always close at hand.

Microsoft launches Windows Azure | An Operating system in the Cloud?

An Operating System in the Cloud? Could it be?….
LOS ANGELES–Microsoft on Monday announced a version of Windows that runs over the Internet from inside Microsoft’s own data centers.
Dubbed Windows Azure, it’s less a replacement for the operating system that runs on one’s own PC than it is an alternative for developers, intended to let them write programs that live inside Microsoft’s data centers as opposed to on the servers of a given business.
“It’s a transformation of our software and a transformation of our strategy,” said Ray Ozzie, a computing industry pioneer who now serves as Microsoft’s chief software architect. (For a play-by-play account of Ozzie’s speech, see “PDC 2008: Windows Azure live blog.”)

PhotoCopy keeps iPhoto and Flickr synced
October 24, 2008
Having recently picked up one of the new MacBooks, I’ve been spending the last few days getting it up to speed with all my Web services and prior storage backups.
One of the biggest hurdles I’m trying to overcome is being too reliant on software, which is considerably easier with today’s cloud services.
One that caught my eye on this front is PhotoCopy from 24×7 Digital.
