Question: What's the best way to post handwritten notes without them taking up a lot of storage space?

Answer: If you have Evernote on your mobile device, you can use the

note. Our system will do its best to determine what characters you are
writing on the note when searching for notes.

your inspiring photos with #Inspire, you can file the photos whenever
you want, but call them all up with one search term.
