I really like the idea of mining your own browsing history for insight. I think that the value of our browsing history is completely lost to us because the lack of tooling to make saving and searching more accessible. It's still WIP but I've been building a browser extension for this on GitHub here: https://github.com/lunabrain-ai/lunabrain My goal is to be able to use the Internet as normal, but have the extension a…

The tabs pile up, not because I hoard them, but because the task has not been finished yet. I start researching a thing, or troubleshoot a problem, and I dig for some time. This digging generally routes me to places of internet not found or shown by my search engine of choice, hence if I close that set of tabs, I'll lose another half day to find them. However, I can't touch that set of tabs, because a small or anothe…
