I love Dropbox, but where's the growth potential? They do an amazing job of storage and syncing, and as a user I'd love for them to focus on that.

Can they use their early success in sync to bootstrap other products? "Evernote" by Dropbox?

EDIT> This is an honest question, and I'd appreciate informative replies.

They've come a long way from their Show HN 10 years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8863 From a demo hacked together over a few months (written in Python, IIRC) and posted on HN to an IPO. Pretty cool, honestly.

I would be soooooo happy if I got to see the code that began it. Does it happen to available anywhere?
