Evernote Clearly gets Text-to-Speech - premium only



Evernote is one of my most used apps, ever. I'll be sharing the apps I use, and how I use them, in my new job as CIO shortly.

Evernote has a very cool product called Clearly. Evernote Clearly is a browser extension for Google Chrome (other browsers will be added soon) that allows you to read online with less distractions. You simply click the extension and it hides all the distractions from blogs and articles, allowing you to read with less distractions and more easily.It use it a lot, especially on sites that I want to clip to Evernote (it keeps all the junk from getting clipped too).

This is great for students who have issues with distractions and makes things easier to read.

It has a great new feature also. Clearly now has Text-to-Speech for premium account users. Premium accounts are only $5 per month, or $45 per year and are well worth it, adding some great features.

Words are highlighted as they are read and users can pause and skip. This is a great feature for ELL, early readers, and struggling readers. It supports 12 languages.

Evernote Clearly for Chrome gets some great new features!



Evernote, one of my favorite web apps (along with Google's many apps), has a great product, Evernote Clearly which is a browser extension for Google Chrome (other browsers will be added soon) that allows you to read online with less distractions. You simply click the extension and it hides all the distractions from blogs and articles, allowing you to read with less distractions and more easily.

It use it a lot, especially on sites that I want to clip to Evernote (it keeps all the junk from getting clipped too).

Evernote has just announced some great new features for Clearly. It now has related notes and highlighting. 
Related notes is just like it is in the Evernote web clipper. When you visit a page and click on Clearly, it will show you related notes to the site you are viewing. 



Highlighting allows you to highlight sections of the site you are viewing and when you clip it to Evernote, the highlighting remains. This is great for calling out important parts of something for yourself, or for people you are going to share the note with.
