It started off being only for books, but since has acquired the ability to keep track of just about anything.

Delicious Library: one of the apps that makes me wish I could afford a Mac. Genius stuff; shame there doesn't seem to be a Windows equivalent.

It's a nice app... and nicely gimmicky. But I just can't bring myself to use it for more than a few days then it gets all out of date.

I guess if you're OCD about books and other items it may have a great use for you, but I feel it's gimmicky and while it looks amazing it isn't as valuable as it may look.

Have you thought about buying one second hand or refurbished?

On a slight tangent, modern farming techniques are more akin to the mining he describes than they are to farming. It's not just the software industry that is affected by this short-term thinking; it's the majority of human endeavour.

It's hard to tell whether the stock market is a cause or a symptom - our primary mode of 'investing in the future' is so prone to being short-circuited for short term gain.
