Comment on More Ways I Use Evernote for Genealogy by Jennifer Trahan

Tonia,
Do you know if there is a way to zoom in on a .jpg image in Evernote when running it on a PC? I just downloaded the latest version and have been playing around with it. I copied a census image into it, and I wanted to zoom in to see the image more clearly, but I couldn’t figure out how to zoom in. When I googled the topic, I saw there were some bugs with the most recent version when trying to zoom into .pdf files on mobile devices, but I’m not sure this applies to my situation. I am looking at a .jpg image using Windows XP.

Ah! They’ve finally reinstalled the Note Links feature which was in Evernote 2. I never upgraded because I use this feature so heavily.

That’s great, Jenna. I was hoping someone would blog some of the RootsTech tips.

Hi Eileen, I remember you. : ) I’m glad you stopped by and commented. I’ll tell my mom that I heard from you.

Tonya,
We are 2nd cousins, my mother was Edna Hemphill Pendley, your grandfathers older sister. My neice Patti Adams has been following your blog and often sends me your post. I have enjoyed all that she has sent and thought it was time that I joined.. Look forward to reading about your findings.

Hi Kathy, thanks! Yes, I can’t wait for the Reba McEntire episode. She’s going to be fun to watch, I think, regardless of which line they trace, but I do hope it will be the McEntires. She’s been tweeting about the episode, so I think she is excited, too. : )

Tonia, I feel so lucky to have a cousin on this line doing such great research. Are you hoping (as I am) that WDYTYA will be tracing Reba’s McEntire line? I’m looking forward to the rest of your transcription of this will. Thanks for your hard work.

Your 5th or 6th (or so) cousin, Kathy

You are so right, Bart. I’ve heard that sentiment expressed as “thoughts become words, words become actions, actions become habits, habits become character, and character becomes destiny.” I do believe it is true.

Circling back around, I’m working on a “research report” post right now and it is amazing how useful it is to get these thoughts down on paper, so to speak.
