I use Scapple to make whiteboards in Evernote (then add a whiteboard tag)

I’ve tried MindJet, Concept Mindmap, xMind, Mindnote — probably a few others. They are all basically the same old mindmap, and so not much differentiation.

But what I really love about Scapple — and this use case is new and exciting for me — is that I can use it to create whiteboards in Evernote. Most of the other mindmaps are expensive and they also save to a zip-type format. So if you try pasting it in Evernote it just won’t work — you can’t view and Evernote will want to decompress the zip before you open it.

With Scapple you have a dynamic view and you can open it, make changes, have those changes viewed in a shared Evernote folder — wow. Then I also add a Whiteboard tag to my Evernote notes that have these files in them and now I can keep track of all my whiteboarding.

It’s really transformative and simple.

Hey Scapple - please add a “save to Evernote” feature within the app so I don’t have to save the file to the desktop first. I would like to add it directly.
