Yes, I think point b gets us most of the way to your use case. The goal is to sync your tweets and be able to search through them to easily incorporate them into quests. Then publish back out to twitter, in a way mirroring the content there.

The advantage of having a separate account is that i can pull in other sources besides twitter so it acts as my personal knowledge base and can pull content from other services including Google Docs, regular websites, etc. and acts as my personal knowledge base.

From this knowledge base I should be able to aggregate all platforms, recombine information, and broadcast back out to all of them simultaneously if I want while keeping a curated repository of what ive learned/done.

I built a product very similar in concept to your knovigator back in 2009-11 at Xerox: trailmeme (google images should still have views). HTML5 visual "trail" (== quest) maps compiled via search results and a browser extension.

It deadpooled in part (this is my analysis) that only a very tiny fraction of potential users have the curatorial drive to use meta products. A competitor to trailmeme at the time, pearltrees, is still limping along. This is an uncanny valley zone in product design space.

You can either add specialized vertical toolchain bits for sectors like education and healthcare to go niche, or you can get really ambitious and try to invent a native social medium around your quests. We tried both with trailmeme. Neither worked.

The specialized direction is basically an enterprise product direction and needs to be imagined with specific sector in mind, not skinning overlaid on to a generic platform. The generic direction needs to be built around social connection rather than knowledge (we realized late)

That's really cool as I've been thinking about a lot of these same things. There's definitely something here otherwise people wouldn't keep trying, someone just has to figure out the key. Regardless, thank you for taking the time to give your thoughts.

The latest iteration of it's a demo with voiceover commentary describing the branching nature of our thoughts and how the tool captures these multiple dimensions making everything granular enough to reference and remix
