I assume that all of us have some kind of "learn later" folder in browser, which is basically gets crowded more and more and we never get back to it? Hope I'm not the only one like that.

So what I've been thinking about is just simple Chrome extension which would allow user to sort and store all interesting materials in one click, similar like bookmarks do. But instead of just storing a bookmark and forgetting about it you'll get a notifications about that after some time, while you're using browser or on phone/email(whatever you prefer). The tricky part is to make those notifications as smart as possible to be sure that they're not like typical Android/iOS notifications which you basically swipe right and forget, but more like notifications at the right time, to really make you learn something new which you discovered previously.

I set up basic FIgma wireframe for a demo:

Please, let me know what do you think about such kind of idea, would you use it if it existed?
Would you use such kind of tool?

Looks pretty cool, not a big fan of having an account to log in tbh

Not sure why it shows completed stuff in the list, I'd probably delete things I'm done reading?

Think it's something people would use for sure, just not me personally

Thank you for your feedback @dreamy star
Yeah completed items probably should be removed, did it a bit in rush, didn't pay attention
Appreciate your opinion

I suppose it's possible to avoid logging in, but that will put some restrictions on "cross-platforming" and integrations with maybe desktop/mobile extensions(might do it also in future)

But anyway, thank you for the inspiration, really appreciate it 😁

I mean it makes sense that in order to share them between devices etc. you'd need an account. Looks fun though, I think the hardest part is certainly the "when to send out notifications" which is hard to do without invading privacy. I think Apple does it pretty well on the iPhones (learning which notifications to show during which do not disturb modes, enabling work mode when you arrive at work, etc.) since they have access to all phone sensors + usage information
