Sort & Analyse Information

Once you have collected your information you need to sort and analyse it so you can apply it to your task, problem or question.

Most of the apps listed on the Overview page can also be used at this stage. For example Excel or an equivalent spreadsheet app can be used to analyse and sort data. Information can be filed in Evernote folders with appropriate tags to allow sorting and grouping. The other note-taking apps could also be helpful. Mindmaps can be used to sort and colour code information collected.
