Evernote brings Context feature to Android and Windows

Evernote debuted in October a feature they call Context to iOS and Mac. What Context does is it pulls content from different sources and then displays these on your screen. The sources include everything from your old notes, your co-workers’ notes, as well as websites like The Wall Street Journal, TechCrunch, and Fast Company. Now, Android and Windows Phone users who have Premium and Business accounts on Evernote will gain access to Context.

If you worry about having your information shared with these different sources, Evernote assures its users that it doesn’t share information to any of the publishers about you and your account.

Flickr adds two-column layout for Android tablets

Flickr is optimizing its app for Android tablets with its latest update. The app now has a two-column view for tablets. Aside from that, you will be able to browse through photos within the full-screen lightbox view. This means you can swipe through photos without having to exit full-screen view. That second feature works for all Android devices.

The photo-centric app also has more in-app photo cropping features and the ability to share a number of photos in one batch instead of one at a time. The update should already be pushed to your Flickr app.

Google gives Inbox users 10 invites each

Google looks to be expanding the user base of Inbox. They’re giving each current Inbox users 10 invites each to share with friends and family. To share the love (or at least Inbox invites) to others, you just need to tap on the Compose icon at the bottom and select the golden ticket icon. There you can put in the email addresses of the people you want to invite. Remember, Inbox is strictly Gmail at the moment.
