WEBVTT - Take a screen shot 

0:00:03.440 --> 0:00:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Before Breakfast, a production of I Heart Radio.

0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Good Morning, This is Laura. Welcome to the Before Breakfast podcast.

0:00:15.720 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Today's tip is for how to remember anything that involves

0:00:19.440 --> 0:00:24.279
<v Speaker 1>your phone, take a screenshot. Then you can use this

0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:28.760
<v Speaker 1>information whenever you need it. I was reminded of this

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>tip when Sarah hart unger my co host on the

0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>Best of Both Worlds podcast, mentioned that she would hear

0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:39.199
<v Speaker 1>something interesting in another podcast while walking or running and

0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 1>then wonder how she could capture it. Then she realized

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:46.640
<v Speaker 1>that she could take a screenshot. The screenshot would record

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:51.280
<v Speaker 1>where she was in the podcast. Then later, when she

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:53.720
<v Speaker 1>was at her desk, she could go to that part

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:56.840
<v Speaker 1>of the podcast and write down whatever it was she

0:00:56.960 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>wanted to hear again. I hadn't thought of this idea

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>for podcasts, but I realized I was using the screenshot

0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:07.320
<v Speaker 1>function on my phone for other things. For instance, I

0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 1>review a reasonable number of books. In the past, i'd

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 1>get paper galleys and i'd mark them up when I

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:15.640
<v Speaker 1>found a quote that I thought I might possibly use.

0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.120
<v Speaker 1>These days, a number of authors and publishers want to

0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:23.120
<v Speaker 1>send out galleys electronically, and I get it. No paper,

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>no shipping, quicker and better for the earth. But I

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 1>really struggle to take notes on anything electronic. I'd be

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:35.119
<v Speaker 1>reading on my phone, but then have to find paper

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:38.080
<v Speaker 1>to write something down, which seems like a high bar

0:01:38.319 --> 0:01:40.160
<v Speaker 1>for a long quote I wasn't sure I was going

0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 1>to use anyway. Then I realized I could take a

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>screenshot of whatever page I found the cool quote on.

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I would save the screenshot to my photos, and then

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.320
<v Speaker 1>later look back through them and pull out the information

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I intended to use. This is now how I handle

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>reviews of just about anything I read electronically. I also

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 1>screenshots pretty liberally for design ideas. I'm working with a

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>designer to renovate the new to us but very old

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>house that my husband and I just bought. I know

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>people create Pinterest boards or house pages, but I was

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 1>finding a lot of stuff on Instagram and just struggling

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:17.960
<v Speaker 1>with transferring it all over. So I realized I could

0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.640
<v Speaker 1>take screenshots and email them to the designer. Problem solved.

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:25.800
<v Speaker 1>Taking a screenshot works for anything you want to remember

0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:29.519
<v Speaker 1>but can't fully process. Now, if I am doing research

0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:31.920
<v Speaker 1>on my phone for an article and come across the study,

0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 1>I'll take a screenshot of the title, author and journal

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:37.639
<v Speaker 1>with that information, I know I'll be able to google

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:41.160
<v Speaker 1>it successfully later. Now. Of course, I can obviously email

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.360
<v Speaker 1>a link to myself too, and we've certainly talked about

0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>that on this program. But I found that the screenshot

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.359
<v Speaker 1>is good for stuff that I'm not add percent sure

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to use, or when I'm capturing a lot

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.680
<v Speaker 1>of stuff, because when I process my email, I'm doing

0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 1>everything as I go through my inbox, and it's going

0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>to annoy me to have links to different articles in

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>very different spots on my inbox. A safe set of screenshots,

0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.240
<v Speaker 1>on the other hand, can sit there until I plan

0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:08.959
<v Speaker 1>to work on that particular project. Plus is Sarah on

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>my podcast co host noticed the screenshot function is great

0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>for things that are fleeting or that happened while you're

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>out on the go. You may think you're going to

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.040
<v Speaker 1>remember something really cool that happened two minutes and forty

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>seven seconds into a podcast, but you know what, you

0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>are never going to remember that. So today, if there's

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:30.720
<v Speaker 1>something that you do want to remember later, take a screenshot.

0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:33.800
<v Speaker 1>That way, you don't have to rely on your brain,

0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 1>which is good because your brain is probably too busy

0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>for stuff like that. In the meantime, this is Laura.

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.520
