Steven Johnson on his use of DEVONthink as Tool for Thought: in the NY Times, on his weblog. [ Ø SMLF • ]

"[T]he qualitative change lies elsewhere: in finding documents I've forgotten about altogether, documents that I didn't know I was looking for."

"Now, strictly speaking, who is responsible for that initial idea? Was it me or the software? It sounds like a facetious question, but I mean it seriously. Obviously, the computer wasn't conscious of the idea taking shape, and I supplied the conceptual glue that linked the London sewers to cell metabolism. But I'm not at all confident I would have made the initial connection without the help of the software. The idea was a true collaboration, two very different kinds of intelligence playing off each other, one carbon-based, the other silicon."

Synergetic Intelligence."[T]he organization supporting Linux has matured more dramatically than most outsiders realize." [ Ø SMLF • ] Automatic Meaning Discovery Using GoogleCharles Simonyi: "The key difference between programming in the abstract and programming as a business is that there is a solid purpose in business. Otherwise, it is just an abstract activity, like playing a game of chess. When you are at the end of the game, you jumble the pieces. The game is gone. When the program is done, some people use it, and I see they enjoy it, and I derive enjoyment from that. Some of them even pay for it, and some of that money finds its way into my pockets, which I then spend on visiting Egypt, or flying a helicopter for half an hour, which is, by the way, a lot like programming projects: The launch and landing are spectacular, the ride can get very tiring, and the whole thing can come apart at any time."

I have to ask. Is there a FAQ to using this site as I notice that Robots was wiped cleaned over night. Though i was just checking to see whether it might be possible to link to a jpg file on my Intranet, I am curious now to know whether links are allowed in posting clips.

I actually would prefer you not to use this site as a support forum and/or search engine robot signpost. It sure is fine to place a link to your site in one snip (preferably your user snip), but unless you have something to contribute which is at least remotely related to the topics which usually appear here, please leave it at that. I probably can answer more of your questions by email.

Linking to pictures on your intranet will only work for persons who actually can access your intranet, i.e. most certainly not me nor any other reader of this site besides you.
