So sad that @HighlyTM is shutting down ๐Ÿ˜ž If you're as sad as I am to lose part of your prosthetic brain, and if their export didn't work because you had tens of thousands of highlights, the little script I wrote today might help scavenge the remains: github.com/devonzuegel/highlโ€ฆ

Understanding 10% of a hard book is still a victory. Youโ€™ll understand 0% of the book youโ€™re too intimidated to try to read.

Superhuman is a productivity tool on the surface. But for people who use the product everyday, Superhuman is closer to a wellness product. The product makes you feel like a better version of yourself and is relaxing to use. The best productivity tools are wellness products.

Weird trend in content: names, headlines, titles are all kinda starting to die. We're in a world of liquid content that is either addressable by a hash-like memorable phrase in the interior, or dissolves into the oceans of text

Request for product: Instagram (or @highlyTM) for books. Seeing what passages resonate with people. Excited that @dksf is working on something in this vein.
Request for product: Pandora for book recommendations.

If your highlighter's not working right today, DM us, and we'll walk you through the 10-second fix. (Thanks to all who've reported and helped get it sorted.)

The RT turns us all into curators of what is most interesting to us, and I personally get as much value from seeing what is being shared by those I respect as curators of their respective fields as I do from what they tweet.

Lots of conceptual overlap between this and Genius, Metrolyrics, etc. highly.co/hl/g69T4mbREziKG2

Making highlights isn't cool. You know what's cool? Making highlights useful. Our new @readwiseio collaboration brings your highlights back to you in daily emails, powered by the magic (cough, science) of spaced repetition. medium.com/highlight-to-sharโ€ฆ

Someday, kids will look back at our generation and ask how we lived without auto-compression. Brilliant idea. ๐Ÿ’ฏ samhinkie.com/ โ€“ at Brooklyn, NY
