Evernote
Going to school or college means taking lots of notes -- but they’re useless unless
you can organize them to use later. Evernote can become your note manager; it’s a great note-taking app that can be used across your computer, mobile device and tablets. Evernote syncs notes across all devices so if you take notes on your phone, it will automatically be available on your computer and tablet as long as you have an internet connection.
Dropbox
School can be daunting with so many homework fi les, presentations and videos to manage and share. Dropbox can come to the rescue as a great fi le-storing and synchronization tool. Dropbox (free up to 2GB) gives you access to your fi les no matter what computer or device you have. It is compatible with PCs, Macs, Linux, Android, iOS and BlackBerry, to name the most popular ones. You also get a web account with fi le access in case you are using a computer that doesn’t have Dropbox installed. The best part about Dropbox is that it is tightly integrated into the computer or phone operating system, making operation almost seamless.
With Evernote, you can take any kind of notes – whether it’s jotting down what the instructor is saying, recording audio or just
clicking pictures of the whiteboard. The free version can take you a long way, and it’s available on almost all platforms.
