Very interesting... Except I suck at remembering dates. It would be a cool addition to the directory structure, not a replacement.

- yummyfajitas 18y agoYou can probably remember yesterday, 2 days ago and last weekend. I suspect those dates encompass 80% of the use cases for such a tool.
- gm 18y agoWell, you're gonna laugh, but... I usually don't know what day of the week it is. I stopped observing weekends a long time ago, so everything's kinda lost in time. Besides, with the things I do, I have to keep careful records for a long time, and be able to find anything really quick. Right now I organize things by theme (project, topic, etc...). An alternate organization scheme that does not get in the way would be cool. For me organizing anything by exact date is overkill. I need to be able to organize by day, month, week, or year (all at the same time).
- misuba 18y agoYes! This was the major mistake that doomed Lifestreams: the whole notion that UI and finding your stuff is an either-or proposition. Let's give people MORE ways to find their stuff, not (just) a different one. (And, naturally, provide a more sensible default than the desktop metaphor we provide by default now.)
- LurkingGrue 18y agoI am one of those weird people that can remember where I put files. I would have a hard time remembering when I put files so I am not sure I would like that interface.
