ClassConnect | Find, build and share lessons. Web research on the iPad using Evernote and Skitch (how-to) My work involves frequent research on the web, and I am doing more of that on the iPad than ever before. This is mainly due to two apps that make capturing information as easy as tapping on the screen. The two apps, Evernote and Skitch, work well together since both of them are now produced by the Evernote Corp.
I have previously detailed how I use Evernote to write long articles on the iPad, a method that still serves me well. Since Evernote is the home for my notebooks in the cloud, it is fitting to also use Evernote in the research phase of my writing projects. It is worth mentioning that both Skitch and Evernote work as well on the Android platform. This is important as I try to only use tools that are cross-platform, so they are accessible no matter what devices I use. The methods I am describing in this article work pretty much the same on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet, too.
