我真的需要升级大脑的内部存储空间。

我只是在开玩笑:就像硬盘驱动器一样,我敢肯定,在过去十年中的某个时候,我的思想达到了最大容量。这些天,我记住的唯一方法是制作和维护一百万个物理和数字票据。(我的妻子可以确认这一点。“我告诉过你一周前”是这些部分周围的一个通用的短语。)

I'm still waiting for Western Digital to start selling SSD implants for the noggin, but in the meantime,Google Keep已经成为我的非粘性品种笔记的存储库。我喜欢它,因为它是易于使用然而,充满了使我的生活更轻松的功能。另外,它在我的台式计算机上也一样(通过它的Web界面or more fully featuredChrome应用程序)就像我对Android device-- where I tend to use it most frequently.

If you, too, rely on Keep's Android app to supplement your gray matter, check out these practical tips to make sure you're taking advantage of all it can offer.

1.记住设置提醒

One of Keep's most powerful features is its native integration with Google's cross-platform reminder system. When you want to remember to look at a note at a particular time or place, just tap the little string-around-a-finger icon in the upper-right corner of the note-editing screen.

这将使您可以选择一个日期或位置,以便在手机上弹出通知。提醒也将出现在Google现在以及Google Inbox,如果您使用它 - 并将其标记为在任何地方的任何一个地方都会导致它在任何地方被解雇。

2.检查您的待处理提醒

不记得您待定的提醒吗?真是一种困境!

The simple solution: Tap the hamburger menu (the three horizontal lines) in Keep's upper-left corner and select "Reminders." There, you'll see a list of every note you've snoozed and exactly when and/or where it's set to alert you.

您还可以在Google Now或Inbox中访问相同的信息 - 或仅通过将“向我显示我的提醒”键入任何Google搜索提示符。

3. Label yourself organized

典型的Google时尚,请继续依赖标签,而不是文件夹或笔记本,以使您的信息易于管理。您可以通过在编辑屏幕的右下角点击菜单图标并选择“标签”,或者通过触摸和握住Note在主列表视图中,然后点击标签图标,然后在Note中添加标签。该屏幕的右上角。您还可以通过使用主题标签(例如“ #businessideas”)将标签直接键入注释。

If you want to browse through existing notes by label, tap the hamburger menu in the upper-left corner of the app and then select whichever label you want to view.

4. Get colorful

在addition to labels, Keep lets you organize notes by color. Maybe all of your work-related notes are green and your personal notes are blue -- or maybe urgent notes are red while all others are gray. You can come up with any number of systems to make the colors useful either on their own or in conjunction with the regular text labels.

To change a note's color, tap the menu icon in the lower-right corner of the editing screen and then touch whatever color you want to apply. From the main list view, you can also touch and hold any note (or combination of notes) and then tap the palette icon in the upper-right area of that screen.

想彩色浏览笔记吗?点击应用程序右上角中的搜索图标,然后点击调色板图标。然后,您可以选择任何颜色并过滤笔记,以便只查看那些附有一定色调的颜色。

5. Speak up

您会在开车时会想到一些重要的事情 - 或者在沿着城市街道行走时也有一个绝妙的主意。你做什么工作?

Next time, instead of looking at your device (when you should be looking at where you're going), just speak your thoughts aloud. Keep works with Android's native voice command system, so as long as your phone supports always-listening voice control, you can simply say: "Okay, Google, note to self" -- followed by whatever it is you want to jot down. (If your phone doesn't support always-listening voice control, you can still dictate notes into Keep; you'll just need to tap the microphone icon on your home screen or in Google Now first to start the process.)

保持会将您的单词转录到常规文本中,并附加声音的音频文件。

(请注意,您可以选择使用此语音命令功能以外的其他应用程序。如果给出命令,并且手机不询问要使用的应用程序,请点击菜单图标的菜单图标。注意“自我”框从可用选项列表中进行选择。)

6. Take your voice control up a notch

Notes aren't only made up of regular text, of course; you can also use a note to create a list. And you can do some handy things with lists using voice commands.

当您想将新项目添加到现有列表中时,例如:“好的,Google,添加到我的工作列表中”(其中“要做”是列表的实际名称)。您的手机会提示您说要添加的物品或物品。当你们完成后,说:“完成!”或“就是这样!”

您还可以将步骤结合在一起,然后说:“好吧,Google,将草坪'添加到我的待办事项列表中。”无论哪种方式,如果您所指定的列表已经存在于您的笔记中,请继续将项目添加到其末尾;如果列表尚不存在,请保持创建新注释并将项目放在其中。

当该检查您的列表时,说:“好吧,Google,我要做什么?”您的手机将使您正确地掌握该注释,以便您可以开始。

7. Turn any note into a list

Speaking of lists, you probably know you can start a new list by tapping the list-like icon in Keep's floating action bar -- but did you know you can also convert any existing note into a list with a couple quick taps?

While editing a note, touch the plus icon in the lower-left corner of the screen and then tap "Checkboxes." That's it; you can now check this off your list.

8.获取图形

您想挂上文档或其他视觉效果以备将来参考吗?在编辑音符时,请点击屏幕左下角的加号图标,然后选择“图像”。然后,您可以拍摄快速照片或从手机画廊中选择现有图像。

What's especially useful is the fact that Keep can grab words out of the image and turn them into regular text; all you have to do is tap an attached photo and then select "Grab image text" from the menu icon in the upper-right corner. You can also edit or draw on an image by tapping an image and then selecting the pen icon in the upper-right area of the screen.

9.获胜,输或吸引

如果您有一个视觉想法要记录下来,请触摸keep浮动动作栏中的笔图标(或点击加号,然后在编辑现有音符时选择“绘图”)。您可以在屏幕上勾勒出勾勒出来,并将结果以及其他任何音符元素以及任何其他音符元素一起存储。

10. Team up with a friend or colleague

是否想与同事集思广益,或与您的其他重要人物保持购物清单?打开便笺,然后点击右角菜单图标,然后选择“合作者”。开始键入该人的姓名或Gmail地址,然后从出现的建议列表中选择它。

连接伴侣后,您都可以在各自的设备上编辑注释 - 您将看到所有更改和添加的内容。

11. When a note gets lengthy, call a Doc

让我们面对现实:在许多基本笔记区域保持卓越绝对有限制。Once a note turns into more of a document -- with lots of text and the need for advanced editing tools -- Keep isn't the place you want to be working.

幸运的是,围绕着一种消失的方法:当音符超过饲养功能时,只需点击编辑屏幕右角的菜单图标,选择“发送”,然后选择“复制到Google Doc”。那将使您的整个笔记都放在Google的more fully featured word processor,您可以在其中编辑自己的内容。

如果文档不是您的茶杯,则可以在同一菜单中使用“通过其他应用程序发送”选项将笔记的全文发送给任何可以处理它的其他应用程序 - 例如Gmail,Dropbox甚至Evernote
