Smart sharing with queues, promises and strings

"In this post, we're going to look at the conceptual building blocks of the inverse: "smart sharing". This is when a sharer's multi-dimensional output is accessible by recipients in various configurations, approximating the possibilities determined by the output's inherent characteristics."

The unreasonable effectiveness of email digests

Like math, recurrent neural networks, big data and protocols, email digests are unreasonably effective. There's a massive asymmetry between the time, energy and expense required to produce them, and the value added for the producer, the recipients and the cultural landscape at large. And that was be

Dumb sharing

This is the very definition of dumb sharing: a multi-dimensional output is collapsed down to a single dimensional preference ("receive", "don't receive"). Instead, consider some of the latent possibilities...

An intro to 0.2

We have a prototype product ready for use. It's a Google Sheet that generates email digests. It's ideal for people who want to save the interesting things they find, share them in a simple format, and search for them later.

A new way to save, share and search

We're prolific curators ourselves and we've long been dissatisfied with the time, energy and expense required to find and store interesting things, share them to relevant people and destinations, and search amongst found things once the original context has disintegrated. So we've taken up the missi
