Google's products are too transient. They develop sth--few years--just drop it.
I don't really thrust them.
Apple is mean company. They are just to the money than developing a product that truly h...

For now, they have included only 100,000 books in their corpus. They probably selected the books on the basis of the publishers (academic publisher). But, as database grows, I don'...

John Perry must be top-down thinker, like I am.
Being able to glimpse through all my notes (see the big picture and their possible relations) while still working on one of them is the main reason wh...
I personally tried a couple of searches with the Talk to Books. I am totally impressed with the results.
The only challenge, so far as I can see, is the technology is owned by a corporation that mi...

I recently got obsessed with the power tools such as Makita, Milwaukee and Dewalt. I am totally tempted to leave my academic study and join the wood working shop.

I like this idea of Life Calendar: https://waitbutwhy.com/2014/05/life-weeks.html
