Taco

@jamesepember thanks for trying Taco, James, and for caring enough to help us improve. Back story on themes is that we added a set that we liked, then removed the worst half (based on living with them ourselves for weeks and which ones users preferred). That doesn't mean they're perfect or set in stone, though, so if you see one that seems awkward, or have an idea, please send it my way.

@troyd So, my opinion is less is more, and would help drive focus towards completing task. Quite happy so far (just a few hours) - will come back with feedback after a few days.

@jamesepember I share that opinion. If you haven't tried it yet, hide the "For Later" sidebar (by clicking the show/hide bar at the left edge of the screen). That's how I recommend most folks use Taco, how I do most of the time, and how the site tries to guide people towards (choose -> do -> repeat). Taco remembers that setting in the Chrome extension and on the site.

@mzuvella the neatest device I could think of was a taco foundry[1]: push a button, get a taco. It started life as Taco Foundry, so we started calling it Taco for short. Simpler and shorter wins, so it became Taco. [1]: That's probably a "yes" to "Mexican food obsession?" :-) Bonus: there's a debit card in my wallet which says Taco Foundry.

@troyd Please tell me you only buy tacos with that card? ;)

@mzuvella Taco makes perfect sense as a name to me. You can throw almost anything inside a tortilla, roll it up, and call it a taco. That's a good analogy for getting a bunch of disparate networks and rolling them up into your "taco". Doesn't hurt that the name's short, easy to spell, and memorable.

@mzuvella Even better: I got to use it once to purchase memelitas in Oaxaca (on this trip: https://twitter.com/troyd/status...). They're an ordinary and necessary business expense.
