How did you come up with the idea?
I’d always forget the things I liked the most – the name of that song that I hear on the radio last week, for example. Or I’d see an advertisement in a magazine that really peaked my interest, but then weeks later when I thought about it, I’d completely forgotton the name. Or, I’d want to go back to that awesome place that someone took me, or even heard someone talking about, but couldn’t for the life of me remember where it was. So I end up going to the same local spots all the time.
Relying on close friends for suggestions were totally welcome, but just not random people. I used to dread searching Netflix. Because I’d never remember that movie that my buddy said I needed to watch. Nevermind the TV’s shows that I overhead him saying he records religiously. For the life of me I can’t remember names of wine, and I’d always want to remember what I had already tried and liked.. Or just as good, see what my friend’s really liked. A friend would go to visit my place in Miami, and ask me if I knew the best kid-friendly places.
I just needed something simple to keep all this stuff, everything I didn’t want to forget, in one place, that was easy to reference.
