A prior habit saved so many possibly interesting things that I mostly never returned to. Think of it like instead of hundreds of open tabs, I collected thousands of items. Most recently the tool to collect them was Pocket<\/a>, but I’ve abandoned huge troves of items in other bookmarking sites or apps. Evernote, Diigo, Instapaper, and others which escape my memory. With the implosion of a servic, i lost everything put into it. Unless, I was active enough to know to export it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, I was chatting with someone at work and noted this news item I saw today is possibly related to why that group runs a system. That, and a really big pivotal event a decade ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I went to find that old event to provide additional context. Other than a single cryptic work email and a later news article about the past event, I can’t find anything. I can’t find it in DuckDuckGo, Google, or personal chats. The work chat we used at the time is gone. (The current chat doesn’t keep much history.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My frustration makes me think I should return to heavily bookmarking. I have lots of stuff from the newspaper that covers the area I am seeking in Pocket, but they are from after the period. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had to look at Wikipedia, and Pocket was Read It Later in the relevant period. Doing more poking, I suspect I was using Instapaper then. And moved to Pocket within a couple years after the window sought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
