I’ve used the Evernote app for about 2 years now. As a matter of fact, I write my draft blog posts on Evernote before posting on my website. It’s a cloud-based software service designed for creating, organizing and storing various of media files including text, photos, videos, audio, and web pages!  All safely backed up in a cloud.  So, when I learned about the Web Clipper extension, I added it immediately. The Evernote Web Clipper extension allows you to clip any article or web page and add it to your personal cloud-based account. You can pull in text from any website or article you find while doing research online, and they save the source of the text as well. Another feature I love is that you can save entire articles to Evernote and get to them later when you have time.  There is so much great content out there and this industry changes minute to minute.  Install Evernote here.

I use Buffer to schedule all of my social media posts.  I have the app on my phone so I can edit, schedule and reschedule posts on the go.  The Buffer Extension on Chrome allows you to directly schedule articles that you want to share with your audience. Click the Buffer button on any website to add Tweets, LinkedIn Posts, Pinterest pins and Facebook updates to your queue. Buffer will then publish your post according to the schedule you’ve set in your account. Easy!  Install Buffer here.

 

The Todoist Extension is a great help with managing tasks throughout the day.  You can input tasks to be repeated daily, weekly or monthly super easily and if you enjoy the satisfaction of crossing things off of a list (like me) then you’ll love this. When you’ve completed your task, just click on it.  Even better, you can save websites and schedule what day you want to/have time to read them.  You can also save Google Docs. This extension is not like Evernote in that you can’t save things indefinitely, but if you know you will have time to read articles on a Thursday, then you can schedule yourself to read that website then, very quickly.  Install Todoist here.

Grammarly gives spell check and grammar advice on everything you write.  It claims to detect over 250 grammatical errors, some of which Microsoft Word does not.  I can’t comment on that but it’s nice to have a free proofreader for your work.  I am famous for too long sentences and missing words in sentences so this helps a ton.  Install Grammarly here.

 

Google Drive

I really do use Google for everything. My pictures, documents (business and personal) and even medical records are stored on my Google Drive.  The Google Drive extension just makes it easier to save directly to the drive without having to save it to the computer first. Install Google Drive here.

Now I haven’t tried this one long enough to make a full recommendation, but, based on the description alone, it is right up my alley! From  the Momentum website ” Momentum is a personal dashboard designed to eliminate distraction and provide inspiration, focus, and productivity.” You can make a to-do list, set daily goals and make notes. The screen displays gorgeous images of landscapes, a clock, local weather and best of all, a daily inspirational quote!  Also, it’s customizable.  Install Momentum here.
