This feels like an important question, with a good "grand perspective" on the whole thing we find ourselves embedded into every day...

There’s a bottleneck here: our interfaces haven’t evolved to handle the flood of information that’s overflowing our minds. Our interfaces have been feeding us, but don’t allow for any digesting.

How can we use the web as a medium to think, not over months or years, but over a lifetime? How do you create context from an infinitely rotating roster of indistinguishable tabs?

I read through this and I'm not entirely certain I understand. I do know people that bury themselves in dozens of tabs, with s bookmarks toolbar that just confuses the heck out of me each time it's there. Still, I feel like a lot of organization (or lack thereof) falls on the user. However, with the right information management skills, I feel like most people don't ever need more than four tabs open at one time.
