How Evernote Turned Note Taking Into a $10 Million Business Notes — they’re not sexy or flashy. But when one is the difference between remembering something of significance and forgetting it, then it takes on an indispensable purpose. Perhaps that explains the meteoric rise of Evernote — the ubiquitous note-taking platform that added more than 500,000 new users in November and is anticipating hitting 6 million members before the end of the year. While Evernote’s products have been around since early 2008, most of its growth has happened this year. At the beginning of year, Evernote was adding 3,000 new users a day. Today, that figure has risen to 18,000 new people per day. It took the company practically two years to sign on its first 2 million members, but this year alone it is on track to double that stat and sign on 4 million new users. To say things are trending upward would be an understatement. And so, Mashable spoke with both Evernote’s CEO and founder Phil Libin and VP of marketing Andrew Sinkov to get their insights behind the company’s success.

MORE To Thwart Further Leaks, U.S. Military Bans USB Drives & Other Removable DisksIn an effort to prevent the kind of intelligence leaks that are making headlines lately, the U.S. military is banning the use of removable disks among its personnel. The servicemen and women in the Air Force and other military branches have recently been ordered to “immediately cease use of removable media on all systems, servers, and stand-alone machines” on Department of Defense classified networks, according to documents obtained by Wired. This order comes a few months after a revalation by one private that he downloaded hundreds of thousands of files to a CD, labeled the disk “Lady Gaga” and turned it over to WikiLeaks. The downloaded files included the infamous footage of an Afghanistan helicopter attack and the more than 250,000 cables that have gotten WikiLeaks into so much hot water lately. Is banning the use of removable disks the best way to stop leaks, though? As we see it, USB drives have little or nothing to do with the real problem. MORE 6 Great Gloves for Touchscreen Gadget LoversWell, the weather outside is frightful (in the Northern Hemisphere anyway), so you just might be regretting your choice of a touchscreen-equipped handset as your portable phone. Take your gloves off to send a text? Not in this weather. As many of you will know, capacitive touchscreen devices (such as the iPhone, iPod touch, Droid, Pre, Storm, etc.) require tiny amounts of charge from your fingertips to operate. Because of this, sticking a great big glove between your finger and the screen kills the conductivity. Never fear! An entire industry has sprung up to stop you from getting cold hands when using your touchscreen phone outdoors.

MORE In today’s YouTube crazed society, video is more accessible and easier to create than ever.

These same videos can also be used in offline and online branding, sales, marketing and PR strategies. A great video will pay off ten-fold. MORE |
