Tied up with Twine?

New Scientist has a piece in this week's newsletter on using the "semantic web" to get organized, focusing on a site with which I'm unfamiliar called Twine.

It's in invite-only Beta now, but might be worth checking out.

Key grafs :

Twine uses a semantic approach to act as a personal organiser, bookmark service, and a social network combined. A user adds information to Twine by creating a note, forwarding an email, uploading a document, or tagging a web page.

"Twine is a service that helps you de-fragment your digital life," says company founder Nova Spivack. "Today we all have different bits of data in different places, there is no easy way to see all you know, and share and manage it."

Anybody around here on the invite-only list? What's it like having your email annotated? How's it going?

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
