You can see exactly where note linking fits into my Evernote organization by reviewing my post on the spectrum of tools Evernote provides for organizing your account. I tend to use note linking most often in internal task management and is a core skill that supports my ability to do 100% of my task management in Evernote. This is more efficient than doing a search into the search box or navigating through stacks and notebooks to get to a single note. With a single tap on my mobile screen, or a single click of my mouse, I’m taken to the related note.
The speed of navigating to notes is also a factor in my love of note links. By using note links, I create logical “bread crumbs” between my notes that brings a hierarchy to my data and supports my efficiency. I love note linking, because it gives me a layer of structure to my notes that is completely in my control - letting me connect any two arbitrary notes together via a hyperlink. In short, note linking makes stuff easier to find and they are an essential part of my overall Evernote organization. And this structure is a key aid in me being able to quickly navigate to what I am looking for, no matter where I’m accessing Evernote from. Why? Because note links create structure in Evernote, which, by design, is an unstructured and flexible platform.
Note linking is the single skill that converted me from casual Evernote user, to an all-in Evernote zealot. If you don't know what note links are, you’re under-utilizing Evernote and this post has the potential to transform your understanding of what is possible with Evernote.
