The Internet is the most powerful learning resource the world has ever seen. It has made information universally available, but the quantity is simply overwhelming. I credit much of my personal and professional growth to the many amazing articles, podcasts and videos written and produced by people much smarter than myself. I would definitely not have been able to help build SuperAwesome without it. I was a pocket user for years, collecting, reading and learning from this amazing content, but always felt it was missing key functionality to be as effective as it should - I built up a “graveyard of information” - my eyes being too big for my reading habits (putting aside too many articles I would never be able to read) - I wanted to annotate, comment and share my thoughts around the content with other people - I wanted to optimise my reading to actually remember it And so we set out to build Mindstone to be **not just a reader**, but truly help you **optimise your information diet**. It helps you - Prioritise what’s important, auto-archiving things that aren’t - Extract key insights by highlighting and annotating content - Automatically generating transcripts from podcasts & videos - Easily share and discuss the content with friends and/or colleagues - And much more Hope it will help you as much as it’s already helping me. Would love to hear any feedback you have to make it better! The internet made information universally accessible. Google organised it. And now Mindstone helps you not just consume, but truly learn from it.

@joshuawohle sounds great! Question: how does this → “Prioritise what’s important, auto-archiving things that aren’t” work?

@anna_0x Good question! There are a few ways we help you prioritise what's important: 1. We look at things like the source of a resource, the people that interacted with it, your personal "starred" indication, etc. to prioritise the content based on what is likely most valuable. Soon, we will be adding a few elements around information density, etc. 2. If something has been sitting in your inbox for 30 days, we will automatically archive it, as it's unlikely you'll get to it and we want to make sure you don't feel overwhelmed (I don't know about you, but my pocket queue became totally unmanageable). We're also working on summaries for content, which will likely be going live later this week. That way, you can look at a summary of the content before deciding it's worth properly diving into (hence saving you time). Does that make sense?

I'm excited to be part of Mindstone's mission to unlock the power of self-directed learning. By boosting productivity in the workplace we're helping people to learn faster and get things done. And productivity is only the beginning: in the coming months we will be adding learning features to help users track their learning and remember more of what they learn.

As someone who previously had a small mountain of bookmarks, saved articles, podcasts queued up to listen to, Mindstone has been a godsend as a way for me to organise the content I'm interested in, adding notes and annotations and now getting the right nudges and insights to help me remember it. Moreover, I use it for portfolio companies quite a lot - I can save content into libraries for folks so that when they ask for recommendations on articles on hiring or podcasts on scaling, I can point them directly to the right resources - including my own notes on the topic. In the interests of full disclosure, I'm not just a user, I'm an investor in the company as well, and I'm really interested for Josh to share their thoughts on the future and how they think they can save people even more time?

@eamonncarey Hey Eamonn, thanks for hunting us - really appreciate it! Your question is spot-on and we're laser-focused on helping people save time, by optimising their information diet. In the near future, we're looking at - Summaries: enabling you to quickly look at the key points of a resource and decide to dive in or not (avoiding junk content) - Audio: enabling you to save articles for later and listen to them anywhere (like on a run!) - Improving our prioritisation algorithms to including things like information density and other factors to help you spend time with content that matters and discard the rest - Improve auto-archiving and make it personal to your requirements (want resources to disappear 7, 14, 30 days after you add them to your inbox? Your call) And many more things coming up in the next few weeks & months
