  1. You were merged into it, actually :)

    I was merged into it? Is it a word play or is it just me who see the topic as REQUEST: Evernote for Linux? :)

    It ought to also be worth mentioning that Evernote already meets this standard.

    Without native (not via Wine) version for linux it's hardly cross-platform. Also I'd consider rich web applications a sign of company keeping up with the trend. Ask Mozilla ;)

    One more thing - my opinion on desktop clients for cloud services. What's the point? What's the point of having a cloud=really_mobile service if you need, as I'd call it, a stationary (desktop) client. Are users really expected to run around and install client applications on every computer they use? Here's where web based version fnctionality scope comes into play. IMO maintenance and offline storage features should be the only features that differentiate web based versions from their desktop counterparts.

    And while I haven't compared the desktop evernote client to the web version it seems to me the web version is pretty functional. Some other services I won't name went some pitiful way sporting not much above what one would regard as logging in and viewing. From my experience a shining example of how an interface of a cloud service should look and function like is http://www.mediafire.com/

    I just hope evernote will go the mediafire way so the topic won't even be needed ;)

  2. There is no "official" Linux client request thread. I'm sure if you use the board search function you'll find some hits. However, EN has been very clear that they will not be developing one & leave that to third party devs. You may want to check out Nixnote - search the board on that for more info, should you need it.

    It seems this very topic has just became the official REQUEST: Evernote for Linux topic ;)

    +1!

    It's worth mentioning that by developing multiplatform applications a software company demonstrates that its development process is modern and flexible :)
