Why have online sticky notes all failed in the past?
- People want a local copy of their notes
- The notes need to track the content, if a news story isn't on the front page anymore, the notes need to move to where the story is.
- Lack of message threading
- Either too few people for communication, or way too many
- Show your friends notes first
Hyperscope
- Lets you reference individual paragraphs, sentences, words, instead of only pages.
- One of the things that Doug Engelbart wishes that he would have done with hypertext is that we didn't have this level of granularity with referencing content. (Clarification: I think he did have that level of granularity in his link system, and wishes it were better implemented in the Web approach to hypertext. See (1) and (2))
Saving Pages
- Saving pages to your hard drive creates a folder of implementation level content
- Printing to PDF is currently the only way to reliably cache information
- Everyone needs to save a plane ticket or receipt pretty regularly, the best way is if the browser could cache the content
