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.

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
