Sweet integration between Olive Tree Bible Reader and Evernote

So the folks behind the famous Olive Tree Bible Reading software for iPhone and other platforms released an update (version 4.08) that features a sweet integration with Evernote.

Now you can take notes within the software and have them sync to a "Bible Notes" notebook within Evernote. It works VERY well. Not only is this a good way to keep your notes backed up, but now you can use your notes on any device Evernote supports. Plus, you can share your Bible Notes notebook and use it to publish notes for a Bible Study.

Here are some lovely screen shots.

Set up your Evernote account. Free version works just fine.

Bible Reader is really beautiful. If you haven't forked over the cash to get it, please do it. It's a great Bible.

Create a note.

Go to the Notes section under 'Bookmarks and Notes' and pull down the band.

It will go ahead and sync up to Evernote.

Your note(s) will show up in Evernote. Make an edit and re-sync.

At this point, you have your updated note.

You'll see your updated note in the Bible upon clicking the snazzy note icon.

That's all there is to it. I haven't found a way to have it synchronize the notes automatically, but maybe that will come in the future.

Another tool to protect your kids

Those of you who run the Mac platform and have youngsters who will soon be, or already are, ready to surf the web on their own (they should be at least 15 years old, imho), will be happy to see the release of NetNanny for the Mac.

NetNanny is one of the most popular Internet filtering and parental control software, and they've been around forever. It's great to see them release their Mac version.

While I still prefer a network-wide solution, like the D-Link SecureSpot, this one is very good and highly recommended.
