As I’m preparing lectures for the new year, I’ve been using Evernote a lot to clip web references as well as making notes on regular paper. It never occurred to me till now to put handwritten notes on Evernote.

That said, I can’t see myself ever using a dedicated product just for this. I write on everything – from my Rhodia pads to moleskine notebook to cheap college looseleaf. Pretty much every other factor – paper quality, utility, cost – would trump OCR recognition for me.

I’ll have to try this out on my regular paper – and maybe even in my Dot Rhodia pad – just to see.
