The Beginner's Guide to Using Evernote on the iPad

Well, I've done it. I went and published a book. You can read all about the process here if you are interested in how I used iAuthor to make this happen.

I've been using Evernote for a while and I usually hear that most people have no idea how to use it on their iPad or why they should use it. I thought I would create a little book that walks people through using Evernote on their iPad.

I used Evernote to map out my ideas and Skitch to take screenshots of Evernote and annotate them for the book. Once I had everything in place, I went to iAuthor and pieced everything together.

I still have plenty to learn on using iAuthor, but I feel I created a simple to use guide for people interested in using Evernote on their iPad.

The book is currently priced at $2.99. The profits that Apple does not take will go toward future nerdy endeavors, @BabyProvenzano and #EduBros ISTE Event Planning.

Thanks for all of the support that you have given me over the years. I would not have thought I was capable of doing this if it were not for all of the kind words from my PLN.

I really hope you enjoy the book and please share any ideas, suggestions or mistakes I made through email.

Thank again!

You can find the book in the iBookstore or follow this link!

  4. Hi. I just purchased your book for the $1.99. At first, I was resistant, but when I read your rational and saw what Apple charged you, I relented. The fact that my book will update as you add to it was a selling point. I love Evernote, and previous to happening on your post, my husband and I hac been experimenting with sharing notes as well as using the Evernote emai address to send a note directly into Evernote. I would love to see an update in your book on using Skitch. I have a photo in one of my notes that got there by my using Skitch, but I have no recollection of how I did it.:)

  5. The images will show when you hold the iPad horizontally. It took me a while to figure it out but it works. Thanks for the book.
