Thanks for the comments. Some quick responses ahead of the next podcast:

CanyonR, ST, ewonk: We’re not trying to be difficult about answering questions about our Android plans, it’s just that there’s not much new info since we last talked about it and CanyonR’s tweet was really funny (thanks for that, BTW)! We are working on an Android client but unfortunately do not have a release date yet. We’ll talk a lot more about our platform selection decision and development process on the next podcast.

Linda, Jim: Thanks!

Freeze: Local storage of notes on mobile versions of Evernote are always a big topic of discussion. As you can probably guess, it’s the sort of thing that sounds like a good idea but can get pretty hairy to do well. We are planning on developing this feature for several platforms, but haven’t finalized dates yet.

Andy: Dave gets really angry at me when I talk about putting in face recognition, but I’m starting to wear him down. I think face recognition will make it into Evernote sooner or later. Hopefully sooner.

Andrew: Constructive language criticism! Virtually unheard of on the interwebs. Double thanks.

Larry: I never tried sending in attachments via the mail interface – it should work but we’ll verify that. You can also just drag the attachments into the Evernote icon in either Windows or Mac. Remember, that you have to be a premium user to put anything other than images, audio or pdfs into Evernote.

Scott: Sorry you don’t like the podcasts. We don’t intend for them to be the primary efficient means for our customers to get serious information about the company; there’s also our website, blog, facebook page, tips blog, twitter feed and email newsletters. To be honest with you, the podcast is mostly a way for us to relax a little bit for a half hour a week and if anyone finds the result worth listening to, that’s just a big bonus.

David: Right after making fun of your question, I realized that *I’d* really like to have character and word counts in Evernote as well. It’s going up on the board at the next Shark Week – our quarterly feature planning marathon. No promises, but thanks for the suggestion!

I am the “tatoo” guy. I hope you won’t be too disappointed if I don’t really get this tatoo… at least not on the forehead, the place already being taken by a nice Apple logo

More seriously, as a journalist, with work submited to lenght constraints, I can tell you that a word/character count is something that ‘ld make Evernote even more essential in my workflow.

I don’t know how hard it is to implement, but I hope you’ll consider the idea. That reason alone could make me go Premium, if I hadn’t already done so

Yes, please do.

Kind of sucks the way you guys are [not] answering the android questions.

But that’s not what I’m writing about. I enjoy your podcasts but am going to allow myself one peevish comment, in the interest of minimizing any fodder for negative impressions. Thee word “unique,” which I hear regularly on the podcasts, does not take the modifier “really” or “very” as “unique” means “one-of-a-kind” and something either is one-of-a-kind or it isn’t. It can’t be sort-of one-of-a-kind or really one-of-a-kind.

@plibin using evernote to snap pics of people at meetings is great. now we need face recognition for those awkward moments at parties or seminars. Jsut take a pic and Evernote will match the image to a note so that you can get a name.

Thanks.

Please give an update on the status of a native Evernote application for the android platform?

I assure you that I am neither malfunctioning nor becoming self aware. I may, on the other hand, be a replicant. I’m not sure I would know if I was.

Thanks
