Evernote – A Life Saver

I’ve recently discovered Evernote and I can’t believe that I’ve managed to live without it! It’s great having a software that will keep track of not only website URLs, but also clip pages, PDFs etc, all with an easy to use addon to Firefox or windows. The tagging system is also fantastic, although I think I’ve been going overboard on the tags to far!

I’m looking for a software to help me keep track of my time online now – any suggestions? It would be great to know where I was spending most of my time so I could optimize. The problem with me is that I tend to enjoy being at the computer too much, meaning that I end up spending way more time there than I should!

On a side note, is anyone else getting fed up with people referring to software as apps? I know technically “app” is just short for application, but most people use it to talk about small programs that run on phones and other mobile devices – I certainly wouldn’t call something as massive as Photoshop an app. Pedantic I know, but it gets on my nerves when big tech sites start referring to every piece of software as an app.
