      How do people organize their reading? Perennially frustrated by this. I want one system that lets me trivially add books, papers, webpages, etc, re-organize very easily, search & filter. What works for you?

      I guess what I want is a good queue, a queue I can trust, and which lets me very, very easily put all long-form content in, including Kindle books and webpages and papers.

      But the queue should also be very, very easily reconfigurable. It's not something to be a slave to, but rather something to help you make good decisions.

      All my wishing aside: what do you do? Maintain a list? Use an app? What? Any tips that have made it better?

      I use @TiddlyWiki for this. I organize all of my readings as PDFs in a couple folders under a Papers/ directory. I use tiddlywiki to keep track of all of my files and easily tag, filter, and search them. Since TW is just javascript, I've crafted a completely custom system myself!

      That's really interesting. Is it public anywhere?

      Is there a sort of common use case you can describe in detail? Do you go back and consult the list of all papers?

      If you're interested or would like more detail I'd be happy to setup a demo TiddlyWiki with all of my customizations for you to try. I'd also be happy to answer any questions you might have about @TiddlyWiki. After trying nearly every other paper/file manager out there I love it!

      Thanks! I won't ask you to do that yet, but may get back to you. I'm getting a tonne of amazing suggestions from so many people, it'll take a while to sort through them.

          Sure! If you wouldn't mind sharing the best ones I'm always looking for ways to improve!
