This is an example of what you can do with just a few things, a little imagination and a happy dream in your heart. There are no limits in this world.

Damn, the federated time line is machine gunning right now.

Son took my Chromebook off to University to use as extra screen leaving me without my main Evernote input device. Just tried a Logitech K480 keyboard and an old Asus Zenpad 7" tablet running WriteNote Pro - turns out to be a great way to bash text into Evernote.

Now looking to add a Markdown editor to the set up. Epsilon and NeutriNote installed at the moment.
