Scrapbook
September 15, 2013
Another app idea of mine is codename scrapbook. Often times, I find myself browsing through all kinds of webpages, PDFs, videos when I am trying to learn a new language, framework or technology. Things get out of hand pretty quickly. It becomes hard to follow and remember where I leave things off, when I want to pick up later. Browser often becomes a mess with 120 tabs open.
In order to solve this problem it will be good to have a service where it’s easy to dump links, text, video, in order to pick those up later.
I know there’s a few solutions out there trying to solve this problem. I think Betaworks have one. SiteDrop However, I tried to use it for above purpose and It didn’t really work for me.
The ideal app should probably come with some kind of a framework that directs user when he/she is collecting the data and present this data later to him/her so at at least app could help these users grasp the topic better with this technic.
