Track what you read and listen to. Talk to people already deep in it.

001 - arrange a shelf

Build a shelf. Your books, your podcasts, your rules.

Pick a theme, or organize what you're already into. Lay it out flat, or arrange it as a step-by-step path - an itinerary for whoever goes through it next. Stuck? It can draft a first pass from your own past sessions - still your taste doing the picking, not a recommendation engine's.

002 - subscribe to one

Subscribe to a shelf. Get sent what's next.

Not a one-time bookmark. As long as you're subscribed, the right books and podcasts keep coming.

003 - you're not alone in it

Talk to people reading the same thing, right now.

See who else is on the same book or episode. Comment. Ask a question. Argue about the ending.

004 - more than a checkbox

A card is a snippet and a deep read, at the same time.

Glance at it and you get a quick highlight - enough to know what it's about. Open it and the same card holds your timeline, your notes, and your status on it, all in your own words. One object, two speeds.

This is the card assembling on the right.

005 - capture everything

See something, hear something - log it.

Text or voice, wherever you are. A book at a café, a line from a podcast - drop a note on the spot, pinned to that place and moment. Enough of those, from enough people, and it turns into an actual tour worth following - not a made-up one.

006 - connect the dots

One thing leads to another. That's the point.

Every card has a way to jump to something related - a similar book, a connected idea. You start on one topic and end up three rabbit holes deep, on purpose.

007 - meet the nerds

Meet the people who actually know this stuff.

Not just their book list - their actual take on it. Get cards from real curators, ask them directly, or pay for a proper consult when you're figuring out your own shelf.
