A structured notebook that I share

I want to share ideas that have some meaning to them, a way of creating value.

Think of it as deliberate metadata creation on a personal scale.

For example, I’d like to have a notepad where when I binge-watch a new series, something I don’t do that often, I make a note about whether I liked it or not, and possibly what I did or didn’t like about it. Usually it would have to do with the story. That’s what gets me sucked in. I think that’s also true for most people.

Then with a good set of reviews attached to my person, I could share this info with my friends, and they could find good ideas for new things to watch. Right now there is no organized way to do this. I think it’s our destiny as a species to figure this out, and have a very high level of confidence that the recommendations would work. And of course somehow this data would be available to the people who create the entertainment so they know what to create more of. Perhaps. It might just give them ideas.

Same with lots of things.

You know the data is in our brains. It’s a pain in the butt to get it out of there and on to the net. That’s the hard part.

Today social networks are good at grunts and snorts. Hi here I am. I am going there. Who I am with now. That’s good, I think we have that mastered. The trick is to learn new dances. Only so much can be done with a chat app.
