Endless streams of information

Modern society is constantly surrounded by huge flows of information. We are in constant search for optimal ways of its perception, to "stay on top". Created many tools to help people cope with stress: Twitter, Pinterest, and today DevShelf fighting for the best methods of organizing your information.

But Twitter doesn't work well in cases when you need to find "the one article that someone wrote a month ago." Bookmarks and the list of deferred read all do not put, search engines are not doing very well with the goal of providing the best materials. Only we, the community can advise each other the best, based on personal experience, not on the opinions of the search engines.
