Nice work.<p>Any plans for creating notes with cloze deletions? I have been looking for a lightweight implementation of an incremental reading system as described at <a href="http://www.supermemo.com/help/read.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.supermemo.com/help/read.htm</a>. Part of the system includes converting what you have read into question/answer material.
Hm, very interesting idea. The extension seems to be a buggy. Or, maybe I'm not supposed to use the Firefox addon they have since the founder writes here that this is a Chrome extension.<p>Anyways, I'm logged into two Google accounts, one work and one personal. I want to use Hibou with my personal account, so in the extension I selected my personal one. But when I use the webapp, it tries to log me into my work one, since it's the first one I logged in with on Google in general. So I switch the account in the top right but then the application dies, reloads and doesn't allow me to login again.<p>And, I can't really figure out how to save the text I've selected, it just stays yellow forever
Founder here. Hibou is a Chrome extension that allows you to highlight whatever you find interesting, then sends you a notification when it's time to review those highlights. Spaced repetition is a proven technique that waits until you're about to forget something before reminding you to review it, thus helping you remember as much as possible as effortlessly as possible.<p>I'd love to hear the thoughts of the HN community<p>Will
My first thoughts was "Slander / Abuse". I'm going to go with the naming wasn't meant to be in Japanese (or Chinese), but thought you might want to be aware of that. :)<p>This is great. A reminder to go through what I'd normally slap in a bookmark with an intention of "reread later". I'll give it a test-drive.
The newest update had me remove the extension straightaway. I don't need a 'get started with hibou now' layer on all my pages if I haven't used it yet on which I can't even press 'not now' because Hibou injects some google analytics which µblock blocks of course causing the JS to break...
Upon updating Chrome this morning I got this page: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/iCU0100.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/iCU0100.png</a><p>The button didn't work and I'm leaning towards this being a bug. If this is intended, I'll be uninstalling. I do not approve of this behavior in apps.
