It's definitely not for everyone. The idea is that you can track things you are interested over your life, when you add new content that is related to something you have added in the past, it creates a link automatically resurfacing the old content. It basically build a knowledge graph of all your interests. Thanks for your feedback.

Is this supposed to be limited to things like people, movies, shows, etc.? It seemed that way based on what search box would accept. I couldn't even add a book via search. And there was mention of articles / blogs... but there's no way to import something like that from what I could tell, so it would be all manual entry which seems to defeat the purpose.

One thing use case I can think of is a private detective who is tracking people. It would be a good place to keep notes or links to public information databases, property records, contact information, interview notes, etc.

Another one would be authors that are writing books that involve a lot of places, things, or people that need to be either accurately described or, in the case of sci-fi or fantasy, have an imagined description that needs to be recorded for continuity.

I'm imagining it sort of like an online version of a file cabinet where you have folders on all kinds of topics filled with notes and printouts. A more digital analogy would be a visual, annotated bookmark folder.

I have some folders like this at work. I need to access a lot of various reference manuals or standards that are difficult or impossible to find online, either because they come from a vendor under NDA or come from databases that are expensive or just hard to maintain continuous access to. Sometimes they are scans of hardcopies that I've had to request because the information is just so old. Whenever I get my hands on something I know I'll probably need again, I save a copy to my folder system. I'd love some sort of better filing system for these that would allow me to annotate the documents and provide some sort of synopsis that would help me remember why it's useful or why I used it in the past.

Right now the main datasource is wikipedia and wikidata. I am working on adding more datasources.
