Great blog post at harmonenterprises blog by Stacey Harmon about tagging or using stacked notebooks to organize in Evernote. I use both. I have a notebook for each project or main subject and then within that notebook are stacked notebooks to break it down.I use an inbox notebook where every note goes that comes into Evernote; from there I review and sort each note.
My notebooks are always changing depending on what I am working on. When I start a project it gets a notebook stack and when I finish the project I keep what I need to keep. Those notes go to a filing cabinet notebook and get tagged with relevant notes. I try to make sure the notes have informational titles so it is easier to search for a note if I need to.
About twice a year I go through all of my notes one by one and delete the ones that are not relevant. I did not think I would be deleting as many as I do but a lot of them I do not need to keep.
Be sure to check out Stacey Harmon's post mentioned above; there is a lot of great information about tagging and notebooks.
How do you organize your notes?
