So I have an e-ink tablet now (Onyx Boox) and I want to use it in #academic work, e.g. reading papers and taking notes about them. Or use it when reviewing papers. Or annotating pdfs.
Other #academics out there want to share the workflows and (android) apps that work for them? #AcademicChatter
@lavergnetho I used my iPad all the way through my doc program because it supported .PDFs. I never printed anything; always had all my research right at hand; and could annotate everything. No special apps needed. @stargazersmith
@AlliFlowers @stargazersmith I think for me a strong case for the e-reader (in addition to the screen) is to not have emails on there (or else, endless distraction occurs). So my workflow involves transfer/sync with a work laptop (where the dreaded emails are).
@lavergnetho I just turned off notifications when I was working. Also, no worries about forgetting to sync or transfer files. I made heavy use of Google, too. Download directly from the university library to your G drive, and rename files later if need be. Also create the proper APA citation and paste is right on top of the doc. @stargazersmith
