Hi guys,
I have been using Evernote to mark down places that I like. It's simple, just take a picture and I have the GPS coordinates already saved, and the snapshot is under a "places" tag. But Evernote does a poor job when you want to find the location again.
I wonder, how do you save favorite places down, and more importantly, how do you look them up later?
Do you save them as contacts on Google (but then how do you find them affectively?)
Do you use something like foursquare? (I don't need the whole social aspect of it).
If you do use Evernote, do you like it, and how do you find the place fast?
What is your solution, are there any good apps out there?

I need to grab some sort of note taking app. Something for grocery lists, to-do lists, that sort of stuff. Preferably free but possibly a couple bucks. The only one I've heard of is 3banana.
Anyone have recommendations for me??
Cheers!!!
Evernote is good, also Color Note.
Color note is sticky note you can post on home screen so you are always reminded with them.
Evernote save them on a website, so if you have to hard reset/flash a ROM they are allways there when you log in.
i use springpad. I prefer it over evernote because evernote was too complex. it did too much for me and i found it difficult to find the notes i had already written, i had to literally do a search for them. springpad also backs everything up online but it is simple to use- you open the app and have a list of all your notes along with a plus button at the top. you can add a note with just text, by taking a picture, or scanning a barcode if it is a product you want to remember. i use it mostly just for quick text notes i dont want to forget. You can also add a folder to your homescreen of your recent notes to get to them quickly. There is no widget to quickly add notes "sticky-note style" though.
Love color note.

evernote is great if you install the client on multiple machines. add the note once and it is available on your other devices (ie: work or home pc).
So I'd do this myself but haven't made the time to. This is more of a request / suggestion for an application. Basically every time you take a photo or a video the application automatically email's the file to any email's you entered into the application. I'm sure its possible since the photo bucket application can upload new photos automatically.
In case you are not aware of why this is useful, basically every photo and video service can accept emails for uploading. Like flickr, facebook, even youtube.
So the program should check the camera's default folder (which should be able to be set in the program) one for new videos and one for new photos. And then use two input fields one for email addresses for new photos and one for addresses for new videos, and then send an email (with some default tags, titles, etc, also able to be set in the program). Then of course you can go through the photos when you get home.
Anyhow if anyone wants to work on this or thinks its a good idea, let me know.
I've always been a confused, badly organized guy, and my head is one big chaotic mess. Since I wont carry a paper agenda all the time, I've recently bought a smartphone (SGS2), mainly to keep things organized and structured.
The problem is, for each task there's a different app. Now I've got a zillion apps, and I wonder if that's the best way to structure/organize things.
I currently use on my android phone:
- Jorte Calender synched with Google Calender.
- Dropbox to sync files between different platforms
- Evernote for my journal/notes/to-do list.
- QuickPic to view my pictures (normal pictures and pictures of paper documents) and video's.
- Opera is my main browser and I use the build-in bookmarker. The bookmarks are synched between my phone and my pc.
- Build in sms/contact Touchwiz app for my contacts
- Gmail app for my mail and mail addresses.
- etc
I want to reduce the number of apps to get things done easier and faster. You guys know any all-in-one apps that are capable of many of the listed tasks? Or could you explain how you structure things?
EDIT: Sometimes I don't even know what app I should use for certain things.
For example: I'd like to make a list with my favorite movies. Should I do this with evernote?
Or: I've got something scheduled and used my calender app for that, but I also need to make a few notes about that appointment. Do I use my calendar, or a notebook app like evernote?
Thanks in advance.

What do you guys suggest?
I would just use evernote for everything! Why do you make such a mess with apps? Just get used to ONE app, and you should be fine
There is as of now, no "multi-app" that can do ALL of your tasks. Unfortunatly, I think you'll have to use the apps the way you already are. Unless you want to root your phone, and install a custom ROM that has some sort of "multi-app"
Hello, I'm looking for an app to upload photos (preferably automatically), but also allow others to upload to the same album. Ideally, the shared album would show up in their account as well so they don't have to go looking for it each time.
Facebook allows this, but I don't want to share on fb, I just want to share with a couple people. I really like Google photos, but the multiple contributor "feauture" is atrocious. It's not even a feature, it's more of a work around unless I'm missing something.
What do you guys think?
Thanks
Looking for some help in finding a gallery app.
Basically I have a large set of images (currently between 3000 - 4000) that I like to browse through. They are all grouped together in a favorites album, and I usually don't bother tagging the individual images. The problem is, unless I keep the app suspended in the background with the last image I was looking at on the screen, the minute I close the app I loose my place and have to try to refind where I was all over again if I want to browse them without starting from the beginning (these aren't grouped by date, and all the names don't follow any unified format). I'd like to have a way to bookmark an individual image so that I can go right back to where I was in the viewing order, and continue on from there.
The closest I've found so far is F-stop, but the app doesn't allow bookmarking of individual images, only by folder, rating, etc., which isn't what I'm looking for.
Anyone know of any such gallery app/image viewer that would have what I'm looking for?
