Re: Ask HN: How do you keep track of everything?

I am building my own system that is a little bit like Evernote. I wrote a Firefox plugin for capturing clips from the web, I can upload all the eBooks, PDFs, etc., that I have accumulated, and as I search for and view stored information, my software automatically detects topics, entities, etc., and tries to pull in other information from DBPedia and from Bing search. I use simple tagging of information to collect stored information for different uses. I am just now rewriting it to be a multiple user system (I wrote it originally as a single user (me!) system).

I am trying to decide whether to try to sell it as a commercial product or open source it. The codebase is a collection of Clojure, Clojurescript, Java, and Javascript and is fairly easy to hack on.
