A great feature of the memex, and the fact that so many who use it go meta in discussing how they use Twitter, is that you can stumble upon the origin stories of the threading superheros Here's @visakanv uncovering hidden powers in 2016https://twitter.com/visakanv/status/718826228610805762?s=19 …

@ryandawidjan I love how you reply to old tweets. Do you google for them, or save/store them, or what?

This is how Twitter as a social memex should work. @Malcolm_Ocean gracefully pointing to contradictions in @fortelabs own tweets Friends helping friends explore thoughtspace. Problem (maybe) is none of those tweets now link back to new aggregation. https://twitter.com/Malcolm_Ocean/status/1130493974928605184 …

There are a great many UIs that would make it much easier to explore, extend and remix ideas than the linear UI of Twitter threadshttps://twitter.com/Prigoose/status/1130776963222663169?s=19 …

"Social media sites have made information consumption a very linear process...Content that's more than a week old is fossilized under the endless dump of new posts, links, pictures. On social media, time is the main ordering principle" -@aaronzlewis

Related -- The Right Thing, for a social Memex, is granular publishing. If you're not ready to make public the ideas that tie together your own, or others public thoughts into a thread, you shouldn't have to. Should be able to thread regardlesshttps://twitter.com/Conaw/status/1099181050045952006?s=19 …

A brief rant on note-taking apps and the structure of thought. Or "Why Evernote is a terrible second brain."

28) Because it supports threading, and the limits to tweet length force you to address ideas atomically, Twitter can actually be a better second brain than Evernote https://twitter.com/Conaw/status/1129806786477772801?s=19 …

Your relationships are data. Data you should own and be able to take with you as you like. No one should be able to prevent you from talking to the people who want to listen/talk backhttps://twitter.com/Conaw/status/1129150958561218560?s=19 …

Replying to @0xCMP @fortelabs

Thoughts. Data. Tasks. Data. Habits. Data. Workflows. Data. Time and Attention. Data. Taking the joke seriously now. OO ties data to code accessible only by interface, by extension apps need APIs, FP says functions take and return data, data is yours to move around as you like.

60% of my fav links from 10 yrs ago are 404. I wonder if Library of Congress expects 60% of their collection to go up in smoke every decade.

Now that more of us are playing the threading game: As we compete+collaborate effectively articulate things we all care about, And weave each other’s thoughts into our respective webs, The desire paths will assemble a mindcity paved with the best individual thoughts

Would love to have a single master tweet to quote / point people to about threading (that ideally threads all the other threads about threading!) but I'm a bit overwhelmed by the number of possible candidates. @visakanv? @Malcolm_Ocean?

  Interesting conversation with a writer friend earlier about the fragmentation of information. We both agreed that fragmentation isn't actually a bad thing - what's missing & needed is better threading. Twitter threads are a specific instantiation of a solution to bigger problem
