It's been a week since the official launch and the reaction we've been getting from users is amazing. Tagging has quickly become an integral part of using eSnips; people are tagging their stuff and searching eSnips for content and people. Just within one week 40,000 items and more than 8,000 folders were tagged with nearly 14,000 different tags!
A lot of interesting public folders are being created too; eSnippers are publishing work documents, thoughts and ideas, home movies, music, promoting important causes and much more. Here are a few examples of very cool folders I found (this is just a sample, there are many many more!):

I also wanted to share with you an intriguing project we came across: Rob's Experiment. From Rob's blog:
"I am poor. I have very little money. But I'm not here to grovel. I'm here to prove a point. Or play a game. Either one, really."
Rob is trying to prove a very interesting point by rolling out an experiment (read all about it here) and he chose eSnips to help him with this task. Rob has a public folder on eSnips where everyone can go to view the evidence of his experiment and share their thoughts. I shouldn't tell you more about this project - you really must go and read about it.
Thanks, Rob, for choosing us and good luck with the experiment! I definitely plan to keep track.
And finally, eSnips was voted #1 on in the "Digital Storage and Remote Access" category of SEOmoz.org's Web 2.0 Awards. It's always nice to receive that kind of recognition.
