@rsnous how would you enhance a common notes or chat app through a geokit-like concept? Most I can think of is e.g. displaying multiple conversation views at the same time, which isn’t very inspiring

Since macOS supports multiple windows for Notes and Messages, I’ve tried them and it’s not much of an improvement to see the first five conversations vs one. Maybe I’m short-sighted trying to cleanly map collection view items/page views into cards
-
It’s hard starting from real-life Notes, since that’s just... a notebook, and not much of an improvement over Notes app even including interactivity?

this is how people take notes and chat (for real work) when not confined by a screenpic.twitter.com/WD4zslRPEM

This is an honest question, I'm not trying to tweak you: isn't that *massively* inconvenient relative to a screen?
-
slightly less convenient, massively *massively* more effective. I care about effectiveness.
-
how is it different to a screen for you/for learning? Periferic vision has a an impact for quickly reference? Also honest question.
-
By spreading things out, you can do *arbitrary* transformations, re-arrangements, linking, anything you want at the speed of thought. You could easily compare pages 1, 4, 8, and 12. Then shift to pages 4 and 12. Then 5 and 12. All with little conscious thinking.
-
But again, that assumes a static number of pages right? Which is what I meant initially; spreading my macOS Notes/Messages convos windows out (from double clicking on item row) wasn’t as helpful as I imagined. I do think I’m not yet seeing what “linking” can do here
-
I imagine your workflow would need to be re-thought a bit to really take advantage of the space. Paper is static and the dynamic-ness that a computer screen provides. You have to be okay editing / commenting via pencil & paper instead of quickly changing via a keyboard.
