You can have different notbeooks within Evernote to keep organised as well as tagging and contents of notes can be searched. You can email to yourself - so you could forward newsletters to your Evernote account.<br /><br />The free version is great, I haven't felt the need to upgrade to Premium.<br /><br />This is a link to how to email to Evernote: http://blog.evernote.com/blog/2010/03/16/emailing-into-evernote-just-got-better/ I am not associated in anyway with it other than an enthusiastic user. Dick Eastman writes about it in his blog and I think that is how I learned about it.<br /><br />Regards<br />Anne<br />BallaratAnne Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970750528434435027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-916423298494272475.post-20503738789147277712013-06-08T00:27:10.840-07:002013-06-08T00:27:10.840-07:00Thanks AFTC - I will try to encourage more societi...Thanks AFTC - I will try to encourage more societies to think about doing this. Perhaps it is something they can look at doing in future years, if not this year.Bribie Family History Associationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03775519272407873357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-916423298494272475.post-64664111564570182982013-06-08T00:14:43.174-07:002013-06-08T00:14:43.174-07:00What a fortnight!What a fortnight!GeniAushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09074874999181040071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-916423298494272475.post-57198932241544913162013-06-07T22:23:34.330-07:002013-06-07T22:23:34.330-07:00Re National Family History Month: thank you Shauna...Re National Family History Month: thank you Shauna for your kind comments about our suggestion that the month could be of mutual benefit to Family History, Genealogy and Historical Societies and newsagents. We have also advised newsagents of the forthcoming opportunity and emailed most FH, G & H Societies in Australia. So far, several newsagents are keen, but not much response from Societies, hopefully because it requires committee consideration. Fingers crossed some Societies will give it a go, as it's a wonderful way of connecting with the general public when genealogy and history is top of their minds.Australian Family Tree Connectionshttp://www.aftc.com.aunoreply@blogger.com
