I've been a paying subscriber to Evernote since July 2010 - so I am only about 18 months behind you. I think the service (app) is actually less productive than it was years ago. At this point I use if primarily to scan bills and other less important paper correspondence as it does have a good OCR engine. The re-write of the Mac app is a disaster. You can no longer sort by many note attributes, it doesn't appear that Skitch is supported (would be glad to hear if anyone has it working), and you can no longer stck notes and create a table of contents. They have obviously done very little market research on how users actually interact with the product. For the moment, I am keeping my personal subscription ($70 annually) so I don't have to transfer all of the notes (and PDFs) but hope to be off completely in the next several months. BTW - if anyone from Evernote is reading - why have I never had a simply way to download a list of my own tags?

Policy and Politics converge (well, sometimes). Enjoy thinking through both. Studied Housing & Community before everyone else cared, too.
