My productivity app is a never-ending .txt file

The biggest transition for me when I started college was learning to get organized. There was a point when I couldn't just remember everything in my head. And having to constantly keep track of things was distracting me from whatever task I was doing at the moment.

Lifestreams: a storage model for personal data

Conventional software systems, such as those based on the “desktop metaphor,” are ill-equipped to manage the electronic information and events of the typical computer user. We introduce a new metaphor, Lifestreams, for dynamically organizing a user's personal workspace. Lifestreams uses a simple organizational metaphor, a time-ordered stream of documents, as an underlying storage system. Stream filters are used to organize, monitor and summarize information for the user. Combined, they provide a system that subsumes many separate desktop applications. This paper describes the Lifestreams model and our prototype system.

Just in time software

I didn’t plan to write software in the grocery store last night. I was tired and hungry, kids in tow. My long shopping list sat in a text message. I wished I could check items off as I found them. Ideas filtered through my head: I could transfer the list to a piece of paper: too tedious I could copy/paste it into a notes app or an email draft and delete items: too much tapping I could search the web and app store for a thing that would do what I want (of which there were no doubt a great many): slow and painful and annoying Nope nope nope nope nope.
