Three observations on this phenomenon:

1. Hospitals and talent mismanagement are all too common.
2. Hospitals and cheap are all too common (except in the C suite).
3. Hospitals feel there can be too much talent in an organization: http://www.tinyurl.com/stupidityinhiring

For example, it will automatically OCR images that include text – including written or typed docs you scan – and make them available for (very fast) searching. Its ability to recognize handwritten text, even at an angle to everything else, is very impressive.

BTW, I have no connection to Evernote.

[From Mr. HIStalk] I did try Evernote at the same time. It was more elegant, available over the Web so that you can get to your information anywhere, and handles screen shots better. It wasn’t as flexible as OneNote, but was easier to use. Its Web Clipper and OCR was very cool. In the end, I liked Evernote better for the most part, but probably wouldn’t have used it enough to want to pay a monthly or annual fee as opposed to getting OneNote free with the rest of Office. I’m not using either at the moment, even the free plan of Evernote, but I could see how either one would be helpful.
