I think Evernote is too expensive for it to be worth buying. Sure you get a bunch of users, but how valuable are those users really? Few are paying.

I swear sometimes we need to step back and think about things from a general consumer perspective and not one of the analytical early adopter. Most people wouldn't remember a number like a checking account number nor do they carry chec

It's well on it's way to replace things like Yelp and even Criagslist or AngiesList. It has a lot of potential, which is why they've been able to raise so much. I'm also pretty sure they have much much more than a millio
