All the email ideas can be accomplished with lotus notes.

Isn't this the same as saying I bought a used smart TV from someone and it didn't come with their Netflix account?

Every open office I've worked in, the decision to have an open layout was made by people that were in offices.

No, I think "writers" just write because they are paid to, so they use 10000 words instead of being precise and getting to the point.

I wish people could just state their idea and be done, instead of padding it out to make it look more "official"

That article had lots of words, but did it actually give any useful advice on fixing your attention?

tiddlywiki was great until all the browsers stop supporting writing to local files, now saving changes is a pain, making me find something else.

My problem with a lot of services listed below, is they all eventually go away, and all your data is off somewhere else. Unless you store your data locally in a human readable format (markdown) you are just putting all your data into a system that WILL go away at some point in the future.

Google has already had 2-3 services to manage your data that they have closed down. Maybe they are the ones that taught me not to trust your data with anything on the web.

Even something like Evernote is iffy, they seem like they are constantly on the verge of shutting down.

Although I do find it sad that that the human race as a whole puts so little value into this type of software, and so much value into sports and politics.

I was kind of having the same idea, except any site you bookmark gets added to a personal web crawler, and then you have your own search site for things you find interesting.

I need the state of the art hardware so I can .... open a terminal.

I find it hard to take anyone seriously who posts their "breaking research" as a series of tweets; find the correct platform that fits your message; if you are a 10 year old girl, then a series of tweets might be fine.

This article is what is wrong with bsd/linux. You have to write an article about all the things you did to get your desktop to just work like any normal desktop works out of the box.

In a normal world, the article should read "I installed bsd, and just used my computer to do something useful."

I gave up on the site as soon as the scrolling stopped working correctly.

why would you you design a site that breaks simple scrolling?

The best way to deal with said tom-foolery on the web is to just not go to those sites.

Weird, they don't allow you to use "private/incognito" browsing unless you pay a fee.

Simple solution to the problem though, I just won't go to washingtonpost.com anymore.

Checked it out this morning and made the switch away from dropbox.

I clicked "browse all channels" to see what kind of content they had, but they just show me a bunch of pictures and if I want a description I need to click on each one? This interface is mostly useless unless you already know all of these people.

categories would be nice.

I don't think Medium has fully grasped that people read most content because they are bored, not because they really care about the content; thus when you put the content behind a paywall, most people will just go find other ways to amuse their bored brains on the internet.

Content on the internet is usually so shallow it's bordering near worthless; lots of people just repeating other people over and over. When it comes to explaining a concept, most sites on the internet just cover the basics and promise they'll get to the deeper stuff later (and never do.)

The nice thing about the old book model (Before ebooks), is the amount of work it took to get a book published ended up filtering out all the mediocre content which we see today on the internet because it is so easy to hit publish somewhere. Paying for a book is worth it, as the book is actually a complete thought. The stuff people are trying to charge for on the internet is just mostly low quality stream of conscious writings with no actual content behind it.
