I&#039;ve tried using Instapaper, but it was made redundant by the way I already use Evernote.  With the &quot;Readability&quot; bookmarklet and the Clip to Evernote button in Safari, I essentially replicate Instapaper withing a program I already use all the time.

You are right though, I was impressed by it.  If I didn&#039;t use Evernote to track articles to read, I&#039;d be all over Instapaper.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve tried Dropbox, but I have decided to stick with Mozy for my remote backing up needs.  It seemed redundant to have both and I feel like Mozy is the better deal.  It doesn&#039;t back up quite as often as Dropbox (which is basically instantaneously), but I very rarely use a computer other than my laptop so that feature was not vital.  You can&#039;t beat unlmited storage space for $4.95!

Thanks for the comment and have a great day.</description>

		<description>Evernote is great.  There is almost no limit to what it can track.  Love being able to use one program for one task when at all possible.

I didn&#039;t used to track my financial information, but I love being able to see my spending broken down into different categories each month.  It has definitely helped me identify areas of my budget that needed corralling.</description>

		<description>Hi Sam,

Good articles, keep them coming !

Not really tracking, but in the set it and forget it category of tech syncing services there is also Dropbox for files. For me it comes as a complement of the free account on Evernote which I just use for capturing text or image notes. My documents, courses, pdfs, etc., get synced and backed up on Dropbox automagically between multiple computers/iPhone, and are accessible through the website when on someone else&#039;s computer. Very neat and unobtrusive.

For running I treated myself to the Garmin Forerunner 405 which syncs wirelessly with the computer each time I get back from a run, all the info getting transferred to their community website for reviewing data, and planning the next training which gets sent back to the device. Very nice gadget !

MacJournal for more intimate/in-depth writing, with a personal journal, thoughts journal, occasionally a dream journal input. This comes after the capture stage of ideas/thoughts in Evernote.

iCompta for financial, gets synced with iPhone app which allows for input on the go, so no more fuss at the end of the month looking for receipts.

Google reader / Net News Wire combination for RSS feeds.

Killed iGoogle a little while ago to eliminate distractions : I used to open the browser for a specific search but ended up looking at the Mail/RSS and other updates and forgetting my initial search.

Used to track sleeping hours, but not necessary anymore, got my bad habits fixed.

I track my printer cartridges stock in a spreadsheet... never fun to be out of ink.

Amazon lists track my books to read along with Evernote.

Probably more that I can&#039;t think of though...

Cheers !</description>
