Re: Mind's Eye dependency

I hear ya, at work I keep multiple browsers open with hundreds of tabs,
thousands of bookmarks, multiple desktops, tabbed shell terminals (green
on black of course), shared keyboard/mouse (synergy app) between
multiple workstations managing several systems including virtualized
platforms. It is still restricting for me performance-wise, really a
24/7 mental linkup would allow explosive possibilities for me,
especially in the areas of working memory (which reading philosophy
helps a lot with). Well, my memory sucks, though it can be uncannily
accurate at times like always having to move a wall to find things, but
very interesting details just pop out like blueprints. I'm weird. :p
