delicious should take into account how long I spend on each page. time-inferred preference metric+lightweight&optional explicit rating=sort!
Maybe I could hack my delicious extension to do something like this.
Ooh, and what about number and duration of revisits?
Often times I am typing an e-mail or instant message to someone and I go to my browser’s address bar to have it auto-complete a url for me. It saves me from having to check twice to make sure the url doesn’t have any types.
Specifically, if I’m already in my browser, I do Cmd-t for a new tab, start typing until the url pops up, down to select, cmd-A to select all, Cmd-C to copy, Cmd-w to close that tab, and then Cmd-V to paste. And I do it so quickly that it is faster than typing longer urls, so I do it even for ones I know well.
I need to play with Ubiquity for Firefox and see how it can make my browsing behaviors more efficient. I don’t think it solves this particular problem yet.
This evening I’m reminded of a phrase I once coined: Don’t Delay, Procrastinate Today!
I seem to be getting everything done except the short paper due tomorrow.
And I never did create a t-shirt design with the aforementioned phrase, as I had planned years ago…
I just want to figure things out enough so that I know I could do them if I wanted to. Often after that, I lose any further motivation. I do it with both human and computer languages, for instance.
I wonder what I will ever find that will catch my interest and prolong my tinkering beyond the basics.
