I don’t know if you journal, but if you don’t I highly recommend giving it a try.  I tend to write short thoughts instead of long novels.  I do like using the regular paper and pen version of a journal, but I often don’t have the paper and pen with me.  I almost always have my android phone or tablet nearby.  After looking through the app markets for journaling apps that would fit my needs, I have finally decided to use what I already had installed, Evernote.  I have been using Evernote for quite some time for business and other personal stuff, but it never dawned on my to just use it for daily entries.

So I created a notebook in Evernote for the Journal entries, and now I can enter journal related items whenever and where ever.  Since Evernote is on my laptop, tablet and my phone, I always have my journal with me.  I wouldn’t necessarily want to use it for very long entries, unless I was on my computer using a regular keyboard.  But so far it works great and no matter what device I open Evernote on, the journal is the same on all of them.

I’ve been going back and forth between Evernote and Springpad for quite some time now.  I was trying to figure out which one I liked better.  Well, it appears that at least for now Evernote has won.

With Evernote I have a droid app, Firefox bookmark and a desktop application on my pc.  This allows me to easily keep notes no matter which platform I’m working on and they all sync automatically.

I keep various notes.  Some personal, some business, a prayer list, etc.  If you haven’t tried it, you should.
