OK, here is the coolest thing I've heard so far: every item in Chandler has a URL

Hertzfeld and Kapor on Chandler

Andy Hertzfeld (of Mac fame) and Mitch Kapor (of Lotus fame) are speaking about Chandler, an open source productivity tool that Kapor is funding out of his own pocket. The organization Mitch created to build it is the Open Source Applications Foundation. Why Chandler?

• email is the most important productivity tool
  
• there are gaps between what email is and what users want.

Mitch describes it as Lotus agenda meets the Internet. A rich ability to associate all kinds of thing and people in natural ways. Here are some features:

• Power email - managing large volumes of email
  
• Sharing and collaboration - share anything with anyone including browsing other people's repositories. Publish and subscribe to let you receive changes automatically.
