Would love to read a gwern-essay on your archiving system. I use evernote, org-mode, diigo and pocket and just can’t get them streamlined into a nice workflow. If evernote adopted diigo-like highlighting and let me seamlessly edit with Emacs/org-mode that would be perfect… but alas until then I’m stuck with this mess of a kludge. Teach us master, please!
Why do you use diigo and pocket? They do the same thing. Also, with evernote’s clearly you can highlight articles.
You weren’t asking me, but I use diigo to manage links to online textbooks and tutorials, shopping items, book recommendations (through amazon), and my less important online article to read list. Evernote for saving all of my important read content (and I tag everything). Amazon’s send to kindle extension to read longer articles (every once and a while I’ll save all my clippings from my kindle to evernote). And then I maintain a personal wiki and collection of writings using markdown with evernote’s import folder function in the pc software (I could also do this with a cloud service like gdrive).
I used diigo for annotation before clearly had highlighting. Now, just as you, use diigo for link storage and Evernote for content storage. Diigo annotation has still the advantage that it excerpts the text you highlight. With Clearly if I want to have the highlighted parts I have to find and manually select them again… Also tagging from clearly requires 5 or so clicks which is ridiculous… But I hope it will get fixed.
I plan to use pocket once I get a tablet… it is pretty and convenient, but the most likely to get cut out of the workflow.
Thanks for the evernote import function—I’ll look into it, maybe it could make the Evenote—org-mode integration tighter. Even then, having 3 separate systems is not quite optimal...
