PS. anyone else read the piece on Gelertner's Lifestreams in Wired this
month? It think the chronology is just one projection of oSpace. The real
key is providing a single message abstraction (with hyperlinks) of all the
'stuff' constantly flowing into our lives. That Yale team's on the right
track. I don't buy the article's jihad against academic CS, though.
