It’s been a big year for Evernote. It raised a $20 million round from Sequoia Capital and Morgenthaler Ventures and also announced that it had hit 5 million users – and that was only 83 days after reaching 4 million users. It also released an Android app.

I caught up with Evernote CEO Phil Libin at Le Web, where we talked about Evernote’s growth to date, and it’s intriguing connections with Russia, where much of its deep core algorithms are developed by its team there, before making it over to the more product-oriented half of the company in the US.
