  • Make sense of technological development the way you make sense of art. You can go to a museum and be moved by one piece, utterly confused and frustrated by another. Ultimately, art is a relationship between the creator, the observer, and the work itself. Collectively, it’s meaning is co-created.

Case Studies

Sublime

  • Sublime is defined as a knowledge management tool
  • The Related Ideas Engine is a fancy way of saying that when you add anything to Sublime, we'll surface a number of ideas, articles, links, videos, and anything else that feels connected from within the Sublime ecosystem.
  • Like open doors into rabbit holes of inspiration, each related item acts as a jumping off point from which to evolve your understanding.
  • Smart search is semantic search, and semantic search is like when you ask your mom for a cookie but there's no cookies, so she brings you a biscuit and some coffee because she knows what you really wanted was a delicious breakfast.
  • Most knowledge management tools are single-player. Sublime is a living, breathing network.
