I’m personally at a stage of disillusionment with the modern web such that I think returning to the early ideas without improvement is an improvement over the status quo.
It may be true that what the author describes is rudimentary, but to me, that’s kind of the point.
This isn’t to say that better tools aren’t needed. But I’m fully on board with what I see as a movement/mindset shift back to the fundamentals of the early web.
If memex becomes a concept of interest in the 2020s, perhaps interested people will invest in building better tools.
