Fold n' Drop

Fold n' Drop is a really nice integration of paper metaphors with the desktop.

Citrine gives you intelligent copy and paste functions. Presented at UIST 2004. Not the most groundshaking presentation, but perhaps the most practical, productivity booster I've seen in a *long* time.

Eternal sunsine of the spotless mind!

How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!

The world forgetting, by the world forgot.

Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!

Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd;

Labour and rest, that equal periods keep;

"Obedient slumbers that can wake and weep;"

Desires compos'd, affections ever ev'n,

Tears that delight, and sighs that waft to Heav'n.

Grace shines around her with serenest beams,

And whisp'ring angels prompt her golden dreams.

-- Alexander Pope, "Eloisa to Abelard"
