Memex - As We May Think
Vannevar BushJuly 1945 Atlantic Monthly
A vision of a desktop device containing a microfilm research library and repository for trails of references and notes.
Captures the “momentarily important item” in a form that “will not fade”.
“The difficulty seems to be, not so much that we publish unduly in view of the extent and variety of present day interests, but rather that publication has been extended far beyond our present ability to make real use of the record.”

• The Journal + syndication (RSS) model works exceptionally well for situational awareness, including timeline correlation from many sources
• The Journal + syndication model scales like the web to handle the largest enterprises

Traction Spaces: What’s Different?
• Each space can be open to a group or kept private - handles internal, stakeholder or public audience
• Each post or comment is addressed to a selected audience• Each post in a space can be from a different author - each
space specifies who has what rights (read, write, comment, edit, erase)
• The original author of a post can have special rights• Traction maintains a full edit and action history for
review• Each space becomes its own place, with its own norms and
permissions• Your single sign on identity and permissions give you a
20,000 foot view across all spaces you are interested in and permitted to see, in context.
• Traction calls each space with its own membership, rules, labels and presentation options a Project
