I saw software I later found out was called Circus Ponies Notebook in the mid-90s, in use by a guy who was too cool for me to understand. Years and years later I got Notebook running on NeXT, then on OS X, and couldn't see the point, by then I had sites online that were saving my notes, links, and images. Everything grows to eventually send email, and anything that is software is already online somewhere already.
