Evernote CEO hints at future task management integration

Phil Libin, CEO of Evernote, talking to Lifehacker:

What’s your favorite to-do list manager?

You know, I don’t actually have one. I use Evernote, which isn’t particularly great for to-dos yet. Yet.

Despite having tried every task management app I can find, and settling on ~~Wunderlist~~¹Any.do for now, I’m very excited about an integrated Evernote task management solution.

I can’t decide. It’s Any.do for now, as of February 25, 2013. Wunderlist has great native apps on most platforms, both mobile and PC, but Any.do is the best mobile solution I’ve found, and that’s where I really need a task manager. ↩

$85 million round by Evernote

It’s one of my favorite services, and the first I decided to pay for on a monthly basis. I think Libin, despite his transparent business style and easy-going manner, is genius of the caliber of any CEO at a company ten times Evernote’s size. He built something awesome, gives most of it away, and amplifies the magic for a small monthly fee.

You don’t get to 45 million users without being awesome.
