Definitely thinking about categorization differently (folders which are similar to this, tags, organic order by linking; bookmarks, notes, all are in the same boat as well).
- lukasgraf 3y agoI saw David Weinberger's talk at Google [1] some 15 years ago, where he presented the ideas from his book (and bought the book afterwards). This is one of those videos I rewatch regularly, because the ideas hold up so well, even today. His critique of the Dewey Decimal system was the first thing that came to mind when I read Johnny Decimal. And indeed, it is flawed the same way.
