Okay, I looked at the Web Beta, and, well....just from the start, it makes me feel lost. A typing area in a sea of white with no frame? Find the polar bear in this blizzard...
Let's talk about design.
Space makes things easy for people to see. Contrast helps people see it.
But what's the whole point of Evernote?
To let me:
Enter notes
Clip things from the web with fidelity
Read what I put into it
The design should support those things. It should be obvious how to do things, and easy to read my notes.
If I make my web browser full screen...the design wastes tons of space, but truncates the title of the note. I shouldn't have to edit the note and risk updating the mod date just to read the title.
Evernote is such a wonderful and unique tool. Yeah, I understand, you want to make it look "with it" and all that.
But really, given a 1080p monitor, I shouldn't be faced with an ellipsis in a note title. It should use the space. At least wrap the line.
P.S. Thanks for not breaking spacing on block elements in the note like the Mac client. That's what I was really checking.
