    Hi,

    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 ;-)

      Highly agree!! the only reason i still use word to write my articles and not evernote is because of the lack of character counter feature

    Folks,

    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 should clarify that comment to Scott: Dave and I get to relax for a half hour a week while making the podcast. Andrew gets to worry about all the audio levels and profanity for a few hours after that.

    Just want to throw out that I find the podcast BOTH informative AND humorous! If I need to find out information NOW, I don’t start downloading podcasts and listening to them – for anything – I go to Google/Wikipedia/company’s website/etc. and read. Podcasts are a very inefficient means of information consumption, however, they also can be a very enjoyable one (at least for me).

    Thxs Phil, nice to hear that.

  • Mike Goggin

    Personally I thought this was a great podcast! The audio level changes were a big help, I enjoyed the banter, and I really appreciated the explanation of character recognition and why there isn’t a transcript. Thanks.

  • Jason Neff

    I too am having trouble getting attachments to transfer over when clipping an Outlook email item. And I can’t drag the attachment from the Outlook email to Evernote either (I can only do that when grabbing the file from the Windows file system).

  • Sam

    Thanks for the entertaining podcasts….I was wondering, how big can my Evernote database get before performance of Evernote becomes an issue?

    Hi, this was freaky … I was listening to this episode today (I’m a bit behind) when you said that you would know that Evernote had made it when the service was mentioned in a rap song. Well, as it happens, one of my students has mentioned Evernote in a rap animation he made just this week!

    I teach grad students in Teacher Education at the University of Canberra in Australia and I’ve been showing them how to make easy animations with Xtranormal. The student listed Evernote amongst the cool stuff we’d gone through this semester. I swear this is not a put-up job! Check it out at http://6705elpc2010.wordpress.com/2010/03/27/dj-megan-from-planet-teck/

    If any of you Evernote dudes read this and visit his animation, it would be great if you could leave a quick comment on his video — you know … in the spirit of encouragement of students teacher and all that ;)

    Hope you enjoy it!

      Very cool!
