I believe this is connected with their scheme of inserting various outside sources of information onto the Evernote screen—e.g., if you do a search for “Silicon Valley” in your notes, some material on that subject from the WSJ will also appear. I’m not sure how that will work if you don’t have a subscription already to the WSJ. And I trust this feature will be optional.

Thank you for posting this—I am a print subscriber to WSJ—spurred by your note I discovered that I could activate WSJ+ and from there redeem the 12 months of Evernote Premium. Would not have known this but for your post.

Interesting thread—thanks for pointing it out. Evernote’s quality control is not as good as it ought to be, and it’s always seemed to me that the obvious explanation for that is the company’s extraordinary lack of focus. (Exhibit A: Evernote-themed socks and coffee mugs.)
