Evernote Table: Presentation-ready in Minutes!

Despite what you learned in school, tables don’t have to be boring. With Evernote, they can be presentation-ready in minutes! I mean, they’re no PowerPoint presentation or Pinterest board; however, adding a little flair to your tables can make them way more fun to use.

Let’s face facts: Tables are so much more than just organizational features. As well as keeping your lists in check, they can help you to organize any data. Furthermore, changing the look and feel of them can go a long way in giving your notes more pizzazz.
