    One thing worth mentioning: there's a Google Keep Chrome extension that creates a Keep note from any webpage, saving you the copy/paste action that you showed in the video. Bonus: if you revisit that page you annotated in the future, the extension button will display in another color, signaling that you have a note attached to that URL

    Stumbled upon your channel by accident. Ended up watching a couple of videos already and will be back for more. Thanks! Favorite tip from this one: that the related Keep note pops up whenever you open.a calendar event. Great way to keep information out of the calendar invite, but still connected. Archive tip was great too.

Clearly explained and I learned a couple of new things myself, this is so much easier than mixing several 3rd party products to try make a system. Thank you.

    The last tip with putting the Keep link in the calendar description, you can hyperlink wording to lead right to the Keep note. (ex: "Task List" could be highlighted and the hyperlink is inserted)

    @JamesStrickland 4 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    One more thing, you can use the url link to the labels to see all the notes for a certain label, like tasks or todo, etc. That way you can created a shortcut straight to that label. For example If you want a shortcut to your todo lists. Click on your todo label in keep and just paste or save the label or created it in a bookmark for you browser. Also, you can create a google keep widget on an android phone by label as well.

    Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I thought I already had a good understand of the correlation between those three apps, but I always learn something from your videos. I knew a lot of the gmail/keep tricks but not the calendar/keep ones. Also, I had not thought about taking the link for the keep note from the URL bar and placing it in anything I want. I know that long url looks ugly in the calendar event but I believe you can hit the link button in the edit window to change the text representing the link like you can in a document to pretty it up :) Thanks again for creating great content!

But then, while watching the part about Calendar, you showed how the notes associated with a calendar event automatically pop to the top of Keep, and I said to myself "Aha!", I bet that's how it works in gmail, too!

    If you have HTML formatting enabled in calendar you will get a display with the horizontal hyperlink symbol displayed. Using that you can label the link to the KEEP note whatever you want.

    Thank you. Very good. Worth noting that the Keep linkage does not require the calendar invite to be open. If you click on an item in your calendar and add a note Keep links it and if you click on an invite that is linked Keep will put it up top in related. Saves having to open the appointments.

I suppose the last trick about URLs would be the key to that functionality?
