Recently Evernote came out with a great feature called the “Trunk”. This feature is basically an app store for Evernote. Well if you have an iPad, mobile phone, netbook or any other kind of mobile device you probably can’t get access to the Trunk, or if you can it is limited due to the size of your device.

As of this morning I found a way to get around that issue. If you go to http://www.evernote.com/about/trunk/

You get full access to the Trunk and all of it’s features on any web enabled device.

I don’t know how many of you read my blog, but I am slowly updating the design and layout to add features that will make the site more user friendly. So, since I am making the site more “user” friendly I would like to know how you, the user, feel about my blog and what you would like to see.

Being a web developer I use many websites on a daily basis, some for my social needs like Google Buzz, Twitter, Facebook and even Youtube and others for News, like Google Reader, NY Times and the local TV news. What do these sites have in common? Almost all of them have no way for a general user to comment on a feature, make suggestions or report a bug.

Since I run my own freelance business from home I have to be very careful with all of my receipts to make sure that I am good when it comes to tax season.
