> are there better paradigms for organizing links, documents, files, etc.? Notebook apps and personal knowledge management systems largely serve this purpose. They don't really replace online bookmarking services; the latter serve as a discovery tool, not as a personal repository of useful links. The personal knowledge systems hold the potential to be the main interface to everything, but have not yet reached their full potential IMO.
