WWDC Live: Andrew and Phil from Evernote

I maintain a list of links to AppleScripts for moving items into and out of Evernote.

Although it lacks the ease of a built-in drag/drop solution, AppleScripting is designed to help us Mac users "do for ourselves" while the developers catch up to our many demands! ;)

As for the format of this post, I actually enjoyed being able to hear the guys who write an app I enjoy talk about what their doing and where they want to take it. A summary wouldn't hurt, but there was a lot of interesting stuff in that video that I hadn't heard before.

Kudos to TUAW for going in-depth and I, for one, hope to see more!

A couple of things:
1. Keep the phones away from the camera.
2. Please make it so I can drag and drop data into and out of a note like a normal application. I pay every month for your cloud service, but the fact that I cannot remove data the way I'm used to and the way I should be is a major turn off, and something that has me flirting with the idea of giving up on Evernote all together, especially as I begin a point in my life where my data intake is going to increase exponentially (graduate and academic research).
3. When I export an image, why the hell do you write an HTML file that just has an tag and a link to an image in a folder? Just export the image! If it's rich text, export rich text! If it's a PDF, export that! Give up on HTML. Plenty of conduits exist to render RTFD as HTML.
4. More data views!
5. Make an option where I can remove the live search results and just type a full query without waiting sixty seconds to have worthless results returned (MBP 1st gen).

I've used (and paid for) DEVONthink, but I prefer these data be in the cloud and accessible from anywhere, not just from some dedicated database machine.

Also, if you guys bought Tinderbox and just made that data and interface paradigm cloud-accessible, I'd worship you on a mountaintop. That goes for anyone.

The streaming video on this site is so choppy, only the truly faithful can watch it.

The Evernote editor (at least on Mac) is a piece of crap! I've been trying to use Evernote to replace my logbooks and while the service is a neat idea, the software badly needs work.

Every time I add a new line and save the note, the text goes bold and focus switches away from the editor. Add bullets and checkboxes and then try to insert or move text and you're struggling to find the right combination to make it happen.

This is hands-down the worst Mac editor I've ever used. It should be scrapped and replaced.

This is BS! Evernote is so closed...the latest "Export" option is so lame. Why can't i just drag stuff out like in Yojimbo.app for example!

Free Evernote!

You mean 'glean' obviously. No typos on video, at least? ;) Anyway, just ask nicely next time! No need to be so miserable and rant about...a blog post. Of all things. Get it in perspective.

Hey, here's an idea. How about writing an ARTICLE about the interview. You know, an article? Words? Or, at the VERY least, a summary of the important parts?

Something that can be read and absorbed in about 1/50th the time of a stuttering streaming video of a boring conference room with a couple of guys heming and hawing about possible new features.

As far as I'm concerned "articles" such as this simply take the easy way out, and expect me to waste MY time trying to gleam the important details.

YOUTUBE PLEASE.
