Thanks to friends such as ericzhangali and Ahao for their comments and attention, this note adds a lot of content after discussing with them.
In the past two days, Evernote 3.5 for Windows has been downloaded, its official help documentation has been read, and a simple trial of the functions I am interested in has been made. An incomplete summary is as follows:
1. Evernote Overview
Evernote is a notes management software.Some people also put it above the "knowledge management" software (I think it has not reached this level yet ). Read the report of Evernote: Evernote allows users to capture, organize, and find information about SS multiple platforms. users can take notes, clip webpages, snap photos using their mobile phones, create to-dos, and record audio. all data is synchronized with the Evernote web service and made available to clients on Windows, Mac, web, and mobile devices. additionally, the Evernote Web Service performs image recognition on all incoming notes, making printed or handwritten text found within Images searchable.
2. Basic Methods for organizing and managing Evernote
(1) In Evernote, all notes are organized by notebook,
Each notebook contains several notes. Every notes is the most basic unit of Evernote management, that is, a note. It can be a simple text or a document with various attachments. Notebook does not support hierarchical management. For example, you cannot use Topic 1. Topics A and B are listed below (but I want to use this function)
(2)
You can add multiple tags to each notes.As the basis for subsequent search. The tags can be organized into a Tag Tree by dragging, And then you click the node on the Tag Tree. It can show you all the notes with this tag. However, it does not support multi-layer tag retrieval. For example, if you have a color tag, there are three sub-nodes: Red, green, and blue. If you click a color tag, you will not filter out all notes with red, green, and Blue tags, instead, the notes with "color" tags are filtered out. I think this will lose the meaning of the Tag Tree. (By the way, if the tag panel is closed, press F11 to open it. It takes half an hour to find it)
3. Several ways for Evernote to collect resources
(1)
Resource collector clipper: It is a small tool used to capture and copy text in other applications. After capturing the screen, you can automatically generate a notes for you. It seems that there is a bug in the text copy function. I tried PDF in Acrobat and always said no selection, but I have chosen multiple lines of text. The text in textpad can be captured.
(2)
Webclipper: A plug-in provided by Evernote for browsers. The browser I use. You can extract webpages (including images), but the process is slow (about half a minute for 7 or 8 lines of text ). However, it is convenient to select the content to be picked in the browser and right-click and select "add to Evernote.
(3)
Copy clipboard: I think this is the most convenient. Select the resources to be collected and press Ctrl + C to copy them to the system clipboard. Then press CTRL + ALT + V to automatically generate a Evernote note Note for the clipboard. If your content is from a Web page, it will automatically put the link of the web page in the Link attribute bar of the notes. I think this design is very considerate.
(4)
Import folders: You
You can drag the entire folder in Windows Explorer to Evernote., It will automatically generate a notes for each file (like a link), so that you can add a tag for each file. If you add new files to this folder in the future, it will also automatically generate new notes for these files. This function may be used to manage comments on code files, but it does not support link jump to specific statement lines.
(5)
Direct input: Of course, you can directly enter text in it to write down your sudden inspiration. The Evernote Text Editor supports simple format settings. For example, the to do list format with checkbox is quite distinctive (SEE ).
4. Retrieve notes
(1)
Full-text search and tag search are supported.: You only need to enter the words you want to search in the search bar at the top of the right side, and you can immediately find the notes containing this keyword, which is faster. You can search in tags and text, but cannot search in imported files. For example, words in TXT files in your notebook will not be searched. This means to make full use of the advantages of this function, you must put all your documents here in the form of notes, or at least tag all your documents. However, the search for Chinese keywords is a bit faulty. For example, if you search for "Chinese", it will also search for notes containing a single "medium" and a single "text.
(2)
Supports filtering by some basic attributes: "Creation time" "modification time" "content attribute" "note source"
5. other special features
(1)
Support for multiple clients: Basically, everything has a backup in Evernote. No matter what terminal you use, everything will be synchronized to the Internet. Therefore, you can get your latest note data, whether on your mobile phone, laptop, or desktop. Currently, the supported Client versions include windows, Mac, web, and iPhone. However, according to thunder43 (post-reading comments), Evernote does not support offline mode in Android.
(2)
Supports text Encryption: The selected text can be converted to ciphertext.
(3)
Supports ink notes: It is like a simple drawing program. You can use several pen tools provided by it to write handwritten words. The saved format is a graphic file, it can also be used to identify your handwritten items, but it seems that the recognition function is not found in the free version I downloaded.
6. Summary
Advantages:
(1) You can easily import folders, clipboard and webpage data.
(2) fast retrieval (this is what it claims. I don't have that much data, and there is no actual test );
(3) Get your notes whenever you have an Internet connection.
(4) Text Recognition (this is also what it claims. I am not interested in this function and have not tried it. It is said that a Russian expert who is the best OCR expert is at his home );
Disadvantages:
(1) Hierarchical notes management is not supported. This is exactly what I care about most.
(2) Chinese search seems to be incomplete.

My desired notes management software(The color is not supported by Evernote ):
(1) easily and quickly link to webpages or local hard drive files.
(2) Quick, intuitive, and convenient full-text search and keyword search.
(3) tree-based tag and notebook management. The level of the notebook itself reflects a relatively fixed knowledge classification and framework, while the level of tag reflects the organization and management of the same heap of knowledge from different perspectives, which can be adjusted at any time.
(4) notes can be obtained and managed at any time as long as there is an Internet connection.
