in reply to Personal nodelet -- separating entries

A common solution to the "remember to upvote tomorrow" problem is to /msg yourself a pointer to it. This is also more easily disposed of the next day than a full entry into the personal nodelet.

That said, I have no objection to making the personal nodelet a little more -- well, personal. Right now, it's the only place where one can store links in an accessible place that no one else can see. Sure, one could use the scratchpad by making it non-public, but the scratchpad is useful in a public form. So, perhaps having the personal nodelet made a little more free-form might be useful.

perl -pe '"I lo*`+$^X$\"$]!$/"=~m%(.*)%s;$_=$1;y^`+*^e v^#$&V"+@( NO CARRIER'

    I have asked for this:

    • have the personal nodelet data be 'plain text' like the scratchpad/bio information.
    • the format of the PN data would be normal PM links: 
      [id://1234|The Title]
[id://8321|Another Node]

      [download]
    • new links are added to the end, just like add to scratchpad.
    • a textbox on the personal nodelet so you could change the title when you add the link would be cool, but now it's easy to edit the links afterwards and just change the title.

    A monk could now edit the nodelet links like any other node, add html, ordering, change titles, ...

    I think it would be grand.
