You're back? Great. Time for some acknowledgments. Firstly to @tylercowen, whose Emergent Ventures grant got us started. Thank you.

In truth, there are many people to thank for ThreadHelper being what it is today. @henrywfisher comes to mind. I see Henry as an honorary team member. He did a *lot of the work* on the UI. (This is how it looked originally. So you know how much he did.) https://t.co/41yI3R9E6n

@garybasin who provided me with the initial push to get this project going and without whom it wouldn't have started.

Miguel Morel, @fiddlemath, and @nnevvinn without whose experienced entrepreneurs lessons we couldn't have made it this far.

Of course, @visakanv and @0x49fa98. They provided the original inspiration for ThreadHelper with their threads. The original project codename was “visa-as-a-service”, because I wanted to thread just as well as them without actually having to put in the manual (threading) work.

@conaw - whose threads on tools of thought and incredible @RoamResearch success were a proof of concept of how it was possible to energise and direct the latent intellectual energy locked in Twitter.

@nosilverv Oooh I just thought of a feature/enhancement. You've probably thought of this already, but in case: surface things I've said to someone, if I'm replying to a tweet of theirs. E.g. if nothing matches my reply content, just look for other convos w/that person

@nosilverv Another feature request! (is there a better way to communicate these...?)I use the Vimium extension, which makes links keyboard-clickable. Would be neat if the click-to-copy-url element in ThreadHelper was an <a> element so Vimium could act on it https://t.co/GIR1kjvZYm

@nosilverv I think I don't want the search to match usernames. @maybegray is way overrepresented in my results because maybe as a content word is matching Maybe as a person. OTOH if I have to have someone fucking with my serendipity generator I'm glad its her.
