part of the reason everyone has a million tabs open all the time is because browser bookmarks are legitimately an extremely awful way to save links. the underlying design metaphor hasn’t changed in, what, over two decades? it comes from a much smaller and simpler internet

folders are completely the wrong structure. what you really want is to be able to throw a link into a service that will spit it back out at you *when it becomes relevant*, and/or *when you’re in the mood to read it*. folders don’t capture context- and mood-dependence

i want to tune spotify to specific moods and contexts, i want to tune youtube to specific moods and contexts, etc. etc. etc. i think a decade ago we weren’t good enough at ML to do stuff like this but surely we must be by now?

i was really tickled by independently observing that his twitter feed seemed “mistuned.” the time is ripe for tuning!

My feed seems weirdly mistuned. Like a radio tuned to the wrong channel. But I haven’t been able to retune it.

currently the way i actually save links is to treat browser bookmarks as an inbox where links go to be sorted later, usually into roam with keywords. ’s memex looks promising but i haven’t played with it much yet:
