Don Sakers 98 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 A coworker just emailed me to ask if I remembered roughly when he and I had both served on a particular committee.I went to my Evernote journal and searched for the committee name: up came a list of entries that mentioned the committee -- from then it was easy to see when meetings were on my schedule (between 1996 and 1999, in fact).Additionally, when going through boxes of old papers, I found (and scanned) several agendas from those meetings. I was able to give him exact dates of my tenure and send pdfs of a couple agendas that included his name.This all took less than five minutes.My coworker was incredibly impressed.Hooray for Evernote!
