#free-ideas: auto-schedule articles you want to read on your calendar to ensure you actually read them. Integrate with pocket/instapaper.

    would you pay $10/month for this?

      I don't think so? Hard to say. Pocket is $4.99/month and I think Instapaper is the same-ish so as a consumer I'd be comparing against those.

        you agree to 5/month upfront 12 months and ill build it in 48 hours. we see if it sticks. if it doesn't i'll refund.

    Use google reminders or I didn't understand fully the problem.

      less about being reminded, and more about having some kind of accountability to actually read all of the articles that I at one point thought were interesting...

        Understand, have the same issue. In my opinion, not everything can be solved with technology. I mean, to have more concentration, focus or memory.

          So true. At some point we just need to make it happen. Though, there are tools in my life that have helped me with better focus/concentration. e.g. a habit tracker to make me stick to habits.

          I guess broadly speaking, what I struggle with is having a queue of great content (be it books, podcasts, articles) that I want to read but I have no system in place to actually start working through that content. I guess I just need to make it happen :)
