If you’re a Google Chrome user, there’s a good chance you’ve seen the Evernote location bar at the bottom of your browser. This bar lets you search for Evernote by name or keyword. To search for Evernote in Google Chrome, open your browser and type “Evernote” into the address bar. You’ll then see a list of results that are sorted by relevance. The first result is always the most relevant, so it’s best to start with this one. If you want to search for Evernote by location, just type in “Evernote” and hit enter. You’ll then see a list of results that are sorted by location. The first result is always the most relevant, so it’s best to start with this one if you’re looking for an exact match.
Of course, doing this isn’t rocket science, and most people can probably figure this out. But have you done it yet? You should also note that you can use the Evernote extension to simultaneously search Google and Evernote at the same time.
Integrate Evernote Search into Google Chrome
You’ll start by right-clicking on the location bar and choosing Edit Search engines…
Then click Add…
And then enter in the search details. I named mine Evernote, and used the keyword “evv” since that’s unlikely to be typed for any other URL, and it’s really easy to remember. Then set the URL to this:
Now all you need to do is type evv into the location bar, hit the Tab key, and you can start searching Evernote.
You’ll see the results in the web interface….
Sadly the web interface badly needs some work, it’s clunky and awful. But… if you’re just looking for a piece of information, this can really come in handy.
