I agree that active recall is better, but I can't do that all day. We
are always taking in information even if we're not trying to learn
anything. I run dual monitors, so I was thinking I could have
mnemosyne running on the side while I'm working on the computer. Also
if I just want to relax and listen to music, it would be nice to use
it in slideshow mode instead of watching some random eye candy that
some media players provide when playing music. In slideshow mode there
should be no changes recorded that will affect normal usage.
