Somewhere in 1,000 old copies is the project Jon was trying to finish. Search as he did: type a fragment, watch the archive narrow instantly, and recover the evidence. No dusty scrolling required. Try Ctrl + K.

THREADLIGHT is a tiny tool for finding the thought you meant to return to. Petrol blue, launched at /threadlight, and governed by the unimprovable motto: Find the thread. Keep moving.
You just experienced why incremental search made Ditto beautiful: retrieval becomes recognition. You do not remember where an item is. You remember one distinctive scrap, and the pile disappears around it.
