Or possibly sooner. Especially since - by a completely random chance - I’ve just discovered that Apple Notes does in fact support subfolders. From all the screenshots, fact that new folders always appear on the top level even if you create them by right-clicking on a folder, etc., I had assumed it didn’t. But if you drag and drop a newly created folder to another folder: tada! Instant subfolder!
Well, I was quite excited, anyway…

Or an example of how you can’t make up in volume what you lose on every sale. ;0)

Very interesting article.
Up above in this thread Steve Z. suggested charging everyone 10%. Even it they lost 90% of their users with a move like that (unlikely) their revenue would increase several multiples over the revenue reported in the Business Insider article.
The tech model “get big then monetize” is very difficult to do right.

Aaargh—Steve suggested $10, not “10%”. (Would be great if we could edit posts here.)
