As someone who dives into certain subjects and rabbit holes, the greatest difficulty comes down to two major problems: quality and sourcing.

Search engines like Google and many others are indexing on how well people do search engine optimization or how many keywords they can own. This is typically done through companies and brands that need the high traffic to drive conversion towards their products. In reality, the best content and knowledge lives on individual sites. Whether they are from thought-leaders or people who just love diving in and writing about their findings, these content sources are not subject to intense marketing efforts and therefore sink further down in search results.

For myself, the valuable content is sourced through people I trust. Quite often this is through friends with similar interests, or even people on Twitter (I guess X now?) who I trust their reputation and opinions. But inherently, this brings up a key issue - finding this content is serendipitous. It is quite often that content passes by my eyes due to the noise of my Twitter feed, or the time at which I hop on Twitter. While chronological listing is essential to Twitter, it makes it that much more difficult to share information that is meant to be timeless.

Right now, I am in the midst of finding tools around the internet that can help me deep dive into rabbitholes with ease, and finding quality content to scratch the knowledge-itch in certain areas.

• **Matter:** I personally use Matter all the time to keep track of articles to read, Twitter threads, or even websites to come back to. My main use case is to save articles that I want to read in the future, and it stores it in a readable format and allows for viewing offline. This means I can continuously dive into various articles and topics without the context switching of various website designs/fonts, and browse while I am commuting to any destination.
• Startupy (soon to be Sublime): This team and product is still in its infancy, but is painting the most promising picture possible for this space. I am a member in their early product, and it allows you to scope through different topics that you may be interested in and see other curators’ chosen articles, and the highlights they found relevant to that topic. Currently, they are in the midst of transforming their product to a better experience called Sublime, which their founder Sari is mentioning to be a huge improvement from their earlier product - can’t wait.
• **Curius:** Now this was a small passion project by a couple of developers, and from my understanding it isn’t going through active development. It is a bookmarking tool that allows users to quickly bookmark articles/pages they are reading and comment/highlight certain areas. Curious (ha, get it?) to see if it gets evolved, but a great way to keep friends knowledge bases intertwined and social.

Can’t wait to continuously see this knowledge management and knowledge graph area grow over time, and curious to hear more about what knowledge management tools you use.
