My SO is a specialist nurse. She takes screenshots of everything under the sun. She finds it easier to quickly look up screenshots than load a bookmark or even find her own research notes. When I asked about it, she said all the other nurses and doctors do it too and that's where she picked it up.
- traviscj 10y agoYeah, makes sense. Bookmark == pointer to bytes, Screenshot == bytes. If the bytes could save someone's life (or N doctor visits, or even 5 saved minutes), quite worthwhile to keep a copy. Same principal as pinboard.in's archiving, except comes stock on nearly every phone.
- arjie 10y agoInteresting, though, because screenshots aren't searchable.
- traviscj 10y agoIndeed, but not surprising when `O(n)` beats `Maybe<?>`.

Useful when arriving in foreign countries where you don't have internet setup - download them all first and have names of destinations, maps, tickets and bookings - especially good in Asian where a taxi driver may not read or speak English.
