Ignore the luddites, this will be a very important can’t-live-without feature in the years to come. Once the privacy issues are worked through, and yes, luddites, they can and will be worked through, this will be a differentiating feature that every other OS plays catch up to. It already exists in some tools like ssh playbacks.
What is important about this?
What will this allow me to do that I wasn't able to before?
What benefit does this feature have to the average user? What about the power user?
Great questions!
Imagine you’re working on a problem and solved it 6 months ago. You forgot to bookmark the site, and you just can’t find it again. No problem. Query Recall to show you what problem it was and how you solved it.
This is a memory of what you did during a user session on your computer…
This is a “I forgot my keys” type solution for the average user. For the power user, it has a ton of uses including what were those settings I changed last week, they seem to have worked and I want to document them, or recap the game I played last week so I’m not completely lost when I start my next session.
