Using Evernote as a Time Capsule

I've been an avid Evernote user for over 15 years now and it seems like every few years I do a deep dive to find even better applications for it. This one may be a no-brainer, but it has been a nostalgia game-changer for me! 

I created a search filter for 10 years ago with the query: (created:day-3650 -created:day-3640) and save it as a saved search in my shortcuts tab. Now, I am able to take a quick look at notes that I created 10 years ago and marvel at how far I have come professionally, personally and technologically. 

It's interesting to see that I did have some kind of an ink tablet (I believe it was the Samsung Note 8 tablet) which tells me that even back then I knew that e-ink was definitely the way to go, even if the app development wasn't quite there yet.

In a few years it will be interesting to build another filter for 20 years ago and get a glimpse at that time machine!
