Thank you for that. But would you consider the experience positive or negative? :)
It always annoys me when people use acronyms or abbreviations with which I am not familiar. In this case, though, using the LW search gizmo on "SRS" led me quickly to the apparently intended meaning. That doesn't always happen - "CEV" is a particularly bad example.
I have made some significant progress in organizing myself with org-mode (basically a really well thought out emacs outliner) - consider this a plug :).
Now I think I am ready to bite the bullet and automate another part of my mental apparatus, memorization. I'd like to hear other people's experiences with SRS - spaced repetition - (negative, too), what software they use, what do they use it for, how much time they spend. I expect these to vary, so stating your reasons is worth an extra upvote (and thanks ahead)
ETA: When do you decide something is worth memorizing vs. putting it into a searchable database?
