WWtGDO is my backburner: a public knowledge base of everything I keep simmering, what I learn, read, watch and investigate while I work, door open.
Shelves by type, themes by links. Each folder holds one kind of note: Dots (ideas, facts, whatever), Sources (notes on things I consume), PJ (interesting earthlings), Expressions (untranslatable words and quotes, proverbs), Preguntes (questions I investigate), Places, Receptes and HowTo.
What’s on the workbench right now: Dashboard In Progress.

David Foster Wallace
