Ken's Key Takeaway: I knew about the OCR in photos. I did not know about the OCR .pdf function. Awesome! Ken
Are you a digital packrat? Are you in need of a searchable repository for everything you want to recall later? Does the idea of automatic OCR (Optical Character Recognition) for all your scanned PDFs get you excited in a way only seriously organised people could ever understand? If so, Evernote is the tool you need right now – and we’ve got the perfect manual to get you started using it like a professional.

Hanks everyone, it really is a fantastic tool and I am still finding ways to use it better. It certainly helps to stay better organized.

This would be enthusiastically received by students, know doubt, who could then extend their visual literacy as well.
Here's a simple way to create some eye catching graphics. Taks a bit to get the size of the photo and the size of the bubble to actually work.
Oh, how fun this is!
