10 Insights into the Nature of Memory
A Northwestern student sent a link to Think Faster, Remember More, one of the themes we discuss in the Cognitive Design class I teach there.

Unfortunately, reading the post won’t give you super memory, but it does provide useful context and pointers for designers working on memory-related challenges.
