Now that itās 2018-08-09, I thought I could just āopen a private project in Scrapbox with Porter, give it an appropriate title, and write more and more at the bottom. You can also take pictures and post them. You can also do voice input.

I used 91958 and it reinforced my feeling that āthis is not what I wanted.ā
-
So what kind of thing did you want?
-
Iāll write this down.
-
Background Information
- Iāve been posting a series of thought processes on Twitter for a long time.
- In other words, one post is short enough that even if itās less than 140 characters, thereās no real harm done.
- I want to keep this up and writing.
- I use Facebook a lot these days.
- for some reason
- Twitter is hard to see after the fact.
- Facebook will be organized into threads.
- Facebookās iPhone app can comfortably post a series of
- Itās a pain to write on Facebook and then reprint to Scrapbox.
- Iām starting to feel like I should just write on Facebook instead of using Scrapbox after writing all this.
- Iāve been posting a series of thought processes on Twitter for a long time.
-
iPhone App

-
I like that I can see my last post and that I can quickly post a photo.

It would be useful to do something similar with Scrapbox on the backend
-
-
use case
- Jot down ideas, etc. that occur to you while walking.
- I donāt write long sentences. I write a little and then I post more and more.
- Iāll do something like 7 posts while on the escalator.
- Damaging Use Cases
- They donāt go back and correct misprints.
- The goal is to quickly externalize the thoughts in the brain. If you can write down what you just thought of before the escalator reaches the top, you can use your mind fully on new thoughts, instead of putting effort into remembering them on the walk from there.
- I want to be able to record what comes to mind as soon as it occurs to me. Even when Iām walking to change trains, I want to stop at the end of the street to write it down as soon as it occurs to me.
- As Iām writing this, I suddenly remember and want to write down something like āIāll pay Mr. K 2,500 yen.
- It is important to write down everything you can think of and eliminate the cost of remembering.
- How are you currently doing it? Itās like youāre writing on Facebook or youāre taking a paper notepad out of your breast pocket and writing.
- If you are writing publicly on Facebook, and you want to remember something that cannot be made public, you will have to write it down in another notepad, which is not good. It would be better to have an app that puts everything you write in a private group in Scrapbox.
- If you want to see the dump results in a somewhat organized and readable form, then there is no need for the initial writing to be in a public place, and you can write it in your private Scrapbox, organize it, and then copy and paste it into your public Scrapbox. If you want to see the results in a form that can be read by others, it is not necessary to make the initial writing public.

Now that the use cases have been explained, letās talk about the design.
- There are two reasons why 91958 does not serve the purpose.
- The first is where explicit action is required for saving.
- And where there is a waiting time of a few seconds for saving.
- I want it to save automatically in the background.
- The second is where you have to explicitly title it.
- I donāt want to be asked for a title when I want to quickly save a thought.
- what would you do then?
- Automatically create a notebook with a title like ā2017-08-09ā and add what you have written to it.
- I donāt know if itās better to buy something like Facebook or Twitter and not be able to easily edit the past, or if being able to edit opens up a whole new world, but Iām happy with the former for now!
- Maybe if you press BS right after a line break, you could go back to edit mode.
- (I assume that what you write down will be reviewed and rearranged later when you come to an environment with a PC, so you can add the revised version if you revise the worst-case scenario.
- Iād like to see a better integration with Gyazo, but maybe Gyazoās side doesnāt provide a proper API.
- I can live with the current system (Gyazo starts up, I take a photo there, and then go back and paste the URL in the clipboard) because itās just one extra step to paste the photo.
- Iām more inclined to wonder if itās possible to use the Gyazo app to take a landscape shot or crop it, but that would be out of scope this time.

I wrote this content on Facebook and then organized it in Scrapbox.
