It’s the time to set new goals and resolve to reach your full potential in the things that matter most. For us at Evernote, that means helping you accomplish even your most audacious of plans. 2015 gave us a lot to celebrate. We welcomed millions of new Evernoters from around the globe. Evernote communities in Argentina, Colombia, Philippines, Ukraine, and Vietnam this year joined 23 other countries with more than one million users. And you were more engaged than ever, logging 20% more sessions, creating more notes, clipping more web pages, and sharing 90% more often than you have in the past. In all, more than 600 million hours were spent in Evernote in this year. Six hundred million hours. Wow. That stat gives us pause. It’s incredibly gratifying and humbling to know that in a world where time is often the most precious commodity, people are spending so much of it in the products we build. The good things that are happening with Evernote aren’t just hours totaled and stats calculated. Far more meaningful are the projects completed, businesses managed, term papers crushed, andcontinents circumnavigated by the people who’ve used Evernote to get there. There are authors like Amy Stewart, who researched her latest novel Girl Waits with Gun with Evernote. Or pianist and composer Chad Lawson, who used Evernote to manage the launch of his bestselling album “The Chopin Variations.” Then there are the entrepreneurs likeYana Vlatchkova, COO of Swipes, and Sammia Ferreira, founder of popular Brazilian wedding site Casando sem Grana, who count on Evernote every day to keep their projects on track. It’s stories like these that keep us fired up about continually improving our features and exploring new ways we can do more. We’re working on the fundamental features that matter most to the user experience across all platforms. Features like significantly improved note editing, more ways to capture information, and fewer steps to recall notes on the go. And we’re only just getting started. Beyond the fundamentals, we want to bring you more moments of delight. Remember the first time you pulled out your phone and called up a recipe you clipped from the web? Or the time you searched for a name and Evernote instantly found it for you as script in a photo. Maybe we surprised you by suggesting a related note that saved you hours of reinventing the wheel at work? We will deliver more of those moments in 2016. On a more personal note, I’ve been with the company for just five months now. In that time, I’ve been continually impressed by two things. First, our global Evernote team. I’ve never worked with a more talented, dedicated, and awesome group of people. The team here makes coming to work every day more enjoyable. Second, you, the passionate Evernote community. I’ve met many of you at events in Beijing, Tokyo, Mexico, and the Bay Area. You know Evernote in and out, you’re vocal about what you love, and forthcoming about what you don’t. I appreciate hearing it all, it inspires us to work harder. For 2016, we want to dream big. 600 million hours of accomplishments is remarkable. But why not double that to over a billion? A billion hours of ideas being captured, projects progressing, and of jobs well done. That’s what we are aiming for in this new year. How will Evernote help you reach your full human potential and your biggest goals this year? Share your stories with us. We look forward to telling them all year long. Here’s to a brilliant 2016!
