Internal representation doesn't matter to me as much as the external view, so I guess I'm actually looking for your planned extensible API - I'll be eagerly awaiting that. With more and more annotation services, there may com

This is a great format for drilling down! A few recommendations: * Hovering out instantly resets, which causes you to lose your place. How about a (user-configurable?) timed gradual reset so you can get back to where you were if you accid

This is not quite what you asked for, but you can achieve a "managed dual/side pane" with a tiling window manager, letting the window manager keep the outline on the side rather than the browser, so that you don't have t

You might be looking for the Tabs Outliner Extension for Chrome. I've been using it heavily for the "middle-state" of saved and not open, but not bookmarked; now I'm looking for a "meta Tabs Outliner"-esque pr

This is an otherwise good choice that I'd consider for my next laptop if it wasn't for no dedicated Home/End and Page Up/Down buttons.

What about http://rubykoans.com/ for learning Ruby? You'll be following TDD, meaning the code should work if all the tests pass. And you learn incrementally as new test cases pass (or koans, as the case may be). I'll venture to say tha

I wrote a Python script a while back to save your saved stories to a local SQLite database, but iirc, it doesn't save the date (dates are show "days ago" in our profiles, so it's relative and not an exact time, and I wanted an exact time).
