• I absolutely loved the semantic wiki stuff that was shown towards the end of the "In search of tomorrow" video. This seems fairly different to that system. Is there a write up/talk about why you changed? Is there anything like that semantic wiki thing available …

• Chris Granger's latest experiments with Eve (github.com/witheve) look surprisingly like a semi-structured personal knowledge system. Take a look at the last 15 minutes or so of this video for a demo: [VIDEO] (the whole video is interesting for the evolution of it)

• I just came across this a few days ago on HN: [VIDEO] [LINK] Eve, the new "programming" tool developed by Chris Granger of Light Table fame, looks absolutely amazing for this use case. I personally can't wait to try it out.
