Just like the outliner "More" provided inspiration for Leo, Leo provides me with inspiration for various thinking, capturing, organizing tools. I've mentioned my idea for a presentation plugin for reveal.js, here's another.
Now that solid state memory has freed us from from the micro-cassettes of yore, I'm amazed of how little innovation there has been in voice recorder apps. Something that allows for more than labeling a big block of narration is needed. Imagine Leo turned to this task, headlines would label snippets of audio captured in their body. To give a visual representation of the ongoing capture, generate a sequence of dashes to represent words, (not exact, more to hint and show duration). You could add to this by adding punctuation via the keyboard while dictating. Headlines can typed in and the snippets rearranged/split/combined. Speech to text can be applied, (more to sharpen the visual representation then to provide text, STT is still pretty iffy -- but it could do a better job at providing dashes for words, maybe add an initial an final letter to some. The text would be available in another pane, a "pacer" would follow along with playback. The biggest thing this all provides is a way to capture thoughts/conversations and a way to access them in a non-linear way.
