Mark, I remember we had this conversation on another thread when I brought up Anki as well lol. I'd summarize that, IMO, if you buy into the TW philosophy that its your external brain - that you place all information that is somewhat important to you into TW - it only makes sense that it would have some mechanism to help you remember certain key pieces.
Add onto that that its completely open source and lets you *completely* customize what any "card"/question can act and look like, it seems like a no-brainer to me!
