Evernote users in iOS 8 May have noticed that they can add an Evernote widget to the Notification Center. It's an awesome way to quickly start a new note of any type.

Portfolios are important in many different professions. Whether you’re a photographer, designer, stylist, make up artist, or model, at some point you’re going to want to display your work so others can decide if you’re the right fit for their project.

TUESDAY TIPS: What are you shooting? (Not really a tip…)
I'm curious... Who's shooting what? Personally, I'm a Canon guy, but I have nothing against Nikon. I was just wondering if I had enough Nikon (or other brand) readers to make finding a guest poster who uses something other than Canon worthwhile. Well, that was an awkward sentence. Let me know what you're shooting in... Continue Reading →
